There are hundreds of stars within a few hundred light years of earth with stars that are as old if not older than our sun.

Also interstellar travel only seems difficult to a planet bound civilization that has to depend on primitive rockets. Just like oceanic travel seemed difficult to people who only had canoes.

Ya but hundreds on a galactic scale is a very small handful it’s .000000001% of the stellar systems in the universe . As for the travel thing I agree that’s why I emphasized a civ that doesn’t have beyond light speed capabilities
