Chile is getting older.  This means more people are living longer.  With age comes weakness.  This is a big problem.  Weakness makes older people more likely to get sick or hurt.  It is important to understand why this happens.  This can help keep older people healthy and safe.

One way to do this is by looking at maps.  Maps can show where weakness is most common.  They can also show why it happens in these places.  For example, some places might have lots of steps.  This can make it hard for older people to get around.  Other places might not have enough parks.  This can make it hard for older people to stay active.

Maps can also show how people live in these places.  For example, some places might have lots of older people living alone.  This can make it hard for them to get help when they need it.  Other places might have lots of older people living with their families.  This can make it easier for them to get help.

Maps can also show how these places have changed over time.  For example, some places might have gotten more crowded.  This can make it harder for older people to get around.  Other places might have gotten less crowded.  This can make it easier for older people to get around.
