Mobility was an issue for a large number: 21 percent did not know how to drive, 44 percent did not have a valid driver's license, and 32 percent did not own a car. Overall, 70 percent were concerned over their health or over money. While 48 percent held jobs (67 percent full-time) and 52 percent were retired and received social security, 33 percent of the sample made less than $5,000 in the last year; and 62 percent made less than $7,500. Only 11 percent claimed to have no health problems, and half reported one to four health problems. Arthritis, hypertension, and dental problems were most frequently reported.
