The results of the research show that the city of Heredia has a barely acceptable friendliness level -with areas of low and medium-friendliness, due to poor access to green areas, high noise levels, high traffic flows, and some services with poor accessibility.  Esta investigación trata sobre la medición de la amigabilidad de la ciudad de Heredia con los ancianos a partir de cuatro variables; la calidad de los barrios, entendidos como el entorno inmediato de los ancianos, la calidad y el acceso a las áreas verdes en la ciudad, a la ciudad utilizando transporte público y a una serie de servicios urbanos básicos en la vida de los ancianos, cada una medida a través de indicadores simples y combinados. Los resultados muestran que la ciudad de Heredia tiene una amigabilidad apenas aceptable, con áreas con baja y mediana amigabilidad, fruto de un pobre acceso a áreas verdes, de altos niveles de ruido, de flujo vehicular y de algunos servicios con poca accesibilidad.
