In parts of the UK, seniors get free travel on buses. That’s very popular. Even where it’s not free, buses can be great for older people who aren’t able or confident to drive (due to mobility, eyesight, etc).

If your buses aren’t popular with old people, you have bad buses.

In Germany, even among elderly that could drive buses are very popular (even though they have to pay). Driving a bus is a lot more social than sitting alone in your car. They meet old friends or they make new ones.
