The share of people 65 and older looking for a roommate has tripled in the past decade, says Matt Hutchinson with the listing site Spare Room.
David West is one of them.
He never imagined living with a stranger at age 72, but divorce and job loss burned through his savings.
His roommate in Fresno covers utilities and West shares his Costco membership.
Darla Desatel is 74 and enjoys the shared company when she gets along well with a roommate.
And that's pretty special when that works out.
She's also proud she's learned to live with less.
