Construction costs are currently skyrocketing

One group of retirees cannot carry out extensive renovations, another part does not want to and spends the money on their own nice things. Everyone as they wish!

Imagine: retirees are just as much individuals as 25- to 60-year-olds. You don't give away any part of your soul in that yet.

Wrong, there are only two kinds of retirees: Those who grumble and complain grimly about everything, and those who talk to you in a friendly, life-affirming way and you think, "I definitely want to become like that." Anyone who claims otherwise is lying.

Category 3 of retirees: Always in front of the TV. They only go out for shopping at most, otherwise you simply don’t see them.

Agreed. I will extend my list accordingly. But seriously: We live in a "Touriregion light" with some campsites that mostly attract retirees. I spend a lot of time outside and basically greet everyone. It is either/or and nothing in between.

There is either/or and nothing in between.

The "in between" are probably those who do not visit campsites, at least not the ones in your town, meaning they prefer the retirees. Best example, but just one among many: the retirees who visit campsites that mostly attract an average age, you don’t even get to know them ;)

And apparently the horizon there is somewhat cloudy, so you cannot look further? I believe you don’t know enough to handle more than two pigeonholes :D

And apparently the horizon there is a bit hazy, so you can't see farther?

My post was meant to be humorous through strong generalization. Your snarky-personal attack in post #6,738 is hurtful and says more about you than about me.
