Many Arizonans Postponing Retirement

Arizona seniors are working longer. From 2000-2007, there has been a 73% increase in the number of Arizonans age 65+ in the labor force. Some are postponing retirement due to financial necessity while others are satisfied with their jobs and desire to work beyond what was traditionally thought of as retirement age. Studies have shown that employment and meaningful activity increase longevity.
