Peter Pan housing
n.— «Sometimes referred to as “Peter Pan” housing, much of the housing in the county is built as though residents will never grow old or never need to house an aging relative. Features such as entry stairs, narrow doorways or lack of a first-floor bathroom can be major barriers for an older person or someone with a physical disability.» —“Fairfax County Looks at ‘Peter Pan’ Housing” Fairfax County Office of Public Affairs (Virginia) Jan. 9, 2007.
