Bridlington, a popular seaside resort.

Many seaside resorts like Bridlington saw an increase in the amount of elderly people. The elderly people thought it would be nice to retire in a place were there is good transport for the elderly. Many seaside towns have shaped their transport system to cope and provide for the elderly. Seaside towns also saw a decrease in the amount of young adults. Partly because young people wanted to move to big cities. Also because there isn't that many jobs in a small seaside town such as Bridlington so they move to other towns or cities.

Another thing that Bridlington has done to make it more appealing for elderly people is that most of the shops are aimed at OAPs and +30 year olds. Not many are aimed at young children apart from the amusements. There are many Help the Aged shops. Also there are facilities for the elderly people such as a Bingo hall, a bowling green and a theatre. Also there is a day care centre for the elderly. Consequently, many elderly people have either moved to Bridlington or have continued to live there.
