The majority <strong>of</strong> co‐operative and low income housing units for aboriginals,<br />
families, seniors and single people were constructed during the 1980s.<br />
In the last decade, most social housing that has been constructed has been for<br />
seniors.<br />
19 In Figure 14, the seniors housing unit numbers include independent living, residential care,<br />
assisted living, and "mixed" buildings that include both market and funded or non‐pr<strong>of</strong>it operated<br />
housing for seniors. The housing units for families and seniors also include apartments identified by<br />
BC <strong>Housing</strong> as suitable for single people.<br />
