Vivara Residences at Arpora in Goa is the first of a chain of dedicated properties for senior-living at similarly peaceful and picturesque places all over India.
With Goa's friendly people, laidback atmosphere and peaceful social climate, it is hardly surprising that this charming haven on India's west coast has become a residential location of choice for senior-citizens. In the past, cities like Bangalore and Poona were viewed as good locations for senior-living but they have become highly urbanized, over populated and often unsafe for seniors, especially those living alone. Clean, green, safe and uncrowded Goa ranks in countrywide surveys as one of India's best states to live in. It does not have dysfunctional urban aspects such as noise and air pollution or traffic jams.
The high doctor-patient ratio and good general as well as super-specialist medical facilities has made Goa a popular destination for 'medical tourists' from overseas. It is now the permanent venue of the International Film Festival of India. The state has one of the highest per-capita incomes and road network densities in the country. English is widely spoken and understood. Many of our residents feel that their children and grandchildren in the UK, US, Canada, etc. are more likely to visit them in Goa (with its lively vacation atmosphere and multiple attractions for the younger generation), than anywhere else in India. Their home in Goa and the proximity of the airport makes it easy for them to travel across India to meet relatives and friends or explore other parts of the country.
