Fewer older people from Hong Kong are moving to the mainland to take advantage of lower costs to fund their retirement, as Zhou Mo reports.
Living on the other side of the border used to be a popular option for retired seniors in Hong Kong, especially as they often had to wait years to be allocated a place at a local nursing home.
Larger homes, a lower cost of living and a better social environment were some of the factors that prompted seniors to spend the autumn of their lives in the Chinese mainland.
