It's only anecdotal but I've seen the same (church aside). My very bright, well to do Grandparents are mostly house bound now and have gotten far slower the less active they've gotten. On the other hand my other grandmother is still the exact same as she was 20 years ago and she's constantly out and about and going on holidays/trips regularly.

There's a correlation problem here though. Maybe they have become less active as they have become slower

Other than property price the latter is reasonably poor, very working class, whereas the latter are upper-middle class and very well off.
