Talking to retired people

This questionnaire was applied in October 2013 to a number of 71 retired persons, known by the members of our association or to members of the Retired persons’ Association in our town.

This is not meant to be a research study, but a glimpse in the retired people’s daily lives, regarding the quality of their life and also their personal preoccupations.

Thank you to all those involved in applying and answering this questionnaire!
