What is a Retirement Community?
A 55 Community offers a better community lifestyle for Boomers. We don’t see ourselves as old, elder, senior, golden or retired. So we prefer a 55 Community or Active Adult Community where we can live in a community to stay active, to experience new things and a new zest for life. We want to down size and have some fun.
Types of Retirement Communities
Active Adult Communities – Del Webb stared this concept with Sun City and the activities center and active lifestyle. Golden Girls Housing Arrangement – appeals to single Boomer women. College Town Community – for Boomers who want a young and vibrant atmosphere and the educational and cultural offerings. Senior Adult Communities - for 62 and over seniors and includes senior apartments for rent. RV Condo Sites – popular in Florida and out West. Luxury Hi-Rise Condos and Mixed Use Urban Communities – city living offers amenities. Manufactured and Modular Homes – offers affordable retirement housing Many others including Resort, Golf and 55 Condo Communities, homes for small town living and 55 friendly communities that are not age-qualified communities.
