Coborrus County Transportation Services Final Report — September 2015 <br />Figure 5 shows the population density of older adults (age 65 and up) for Cabarrus County <br />block groups. For comparison, the county -wide density of older adults is approximately 55 <br />older adults per square mile. Block groups shown in green on the Figure 5 have older <br />adult population densities that are more than triple the county average. Block groups <br />shown in blue or red have even higher densities of older adults. The highest densities of <br />older adult populations are located in the urban areas of Kannapolis and Concord and are <br />generally located near existing CK Rider routes. However, some of the orange areas on the <br />map, where the older adult population is up to double the countywide average, are located <br />in the southwestern portion of the county around Harrisburg. This area is part of the <br />expanded urbanized area from the 2010 Census, but is not currently served by CK Rider. <br />Based on current funding, CCTS provides transportation in this area for eligible older <br />adults, persons with disabilities, and clients of human service agencies. <br />Figure 5: Population Density of Older Adults (Age 65 and up) <br />0 <br />MEkKLENBUR <br />X73 <br />Miles <br />Y0 " 1.875 3.75 5 <br />Legend <br />Older Adults Per Square Mile <br />less than 50 <br />u 50 to 149.9 <br />150 to 299.9 <br />- 300 to 449.9 <br />- 450 or greater <br />County Boundary <br />Attachment number 1 \n <br />F -3 Page 93 <br />
