The environment matters more than the number of people.

A common mistake is believing that a house full of family members guarantees well-being. The reality is different: the quality of the environment is more important than the number of people living there. A safe, accessible, functional, and stimulating home protects autonomy and prevents accidents, dependency, and sadness.

Dangerous staircases, poorly adapted bathrooms, or impractical spaces can be more limiting than loneliness. Designing the right environment is a long-term health strategy.
