10. I hear you, and realize there's much to what you say.

My home is one-floor also, and some accommodations - hand rails, higher commodes, walk-in shower - are in place.
Plus it's the place my adult kids gather for holidays.
And, frankly, the idea of moving is physically daunting. - I have limited energy and stamina for all that a move would entail.
I also keep odd hours - up late at night, sleep in in the morning.
Food/meals are to be considered. - I like a hot meal in the evening, though I no longer cook. I get prepared meals from supermarket or drive-throughs that prepare your order on the spot.
I could get help in to assist as needed as/if I become limited.

Therein lies the dilemma I first spoke of
