This look at Colorado's 55- to 65-year-old population provides insights into how senior-serving organizations and agencies can better plan, prepare and address the needs of the growing number of Coloradans approaching retirement. This sizeable group - nearly half a million strong - offers unique opportunities to communities, employers and charities through their considerable knowledge, skills and enthusiasm.
