520 _aFor elderly people, residential mobility can trigger considerable consequences, especially if it happens alongside events linked to individual ageing. This can be observed through the process of moving into intermediary housing (service-apartments cum residences for senior citizens, sheltered housing accommodation, and other forms) which often concern elderly people in a situation of déprise. Based on research among people living in intermediary housing (IH), this article considers the different reasons that account for this residential choice and argues that these forms of housing enable re-securing these persons. Depending upon the reasons that cause elderly people to move into IH and the interplay with other variables such as health, forms of sociability, etc., it appears that individuals do not all benefit in the same way from the services offered within the premises of these diverse habitats, and that the reconstruction of one’s home and a sense of place identical to one’s former residence remains an incomplete process for some of the older movers. These observations lead us to identify the notion of a residential fork in the road. To summarize the diversity of situations, we suggest three paths of ageing in IH which constitute three illustrations of the notions of emprise, reprise, and déprise.
