Aging-in-place in Pulaski County

Pulaski County is home to roughly 398,322 residents, of whom about 64,528 are age 65 or older - a senior share of 16.2%, in line with the U.S. average. For families planning aging-in-place modifications here, that population density translates directly into a deep bench of local contractors familiar with the needs of older homeowners.

Roughly 58.1% of homes in Pulaski County are owner-occupied at a median home value of $187,600. That's a lower-than-average ownership rate, which can mean more renters navigating accessibility modifications with landlord involvement. Older homes in established neighborhoods can require careful planning for grab-bar anchoring, walk-in shower conversions, and doorway widening - all standard work for the aging-in-place specialists listed below.

About 15.6% of Pulaski County residents report a disability, a rate elevated relative to national levels. Demand for accessibility-focused remodelers - bathroom safety upgrades, non-slip flooring, ADA toilet installations, and lowered countertops - reflects that local population, not a one-size-fits-all national average.
