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.
