The exponential increase in life expectancy in the twentieth century, coupled with a significant drop in fertility in the twenty-first century, demands rethinking family-based care for older people who require assistance with activities of daily living. We argue that age diversity in the population and a trend toward urbanization represent two emerging resources on which new care models can be built. By distributing care among age-diverse groups of kin and non-kin who live in close geographical proximity, demands on individuals can be minimized and social exchanges across generations can build social bonds. In this essay, we discuss features of cities and social infrastructures that can contribute to distributed models of community-based care and provide examples of ongoing efforts that can be scaled nationally and internationally
