There is a common misconception that 55+ communities are for “old” people. 55 Active Adult Living is for persons 55 and over (or as I like to say 55 and better) who are young at heart. Some residents are retired, others still working. All are looking to enjoy interests and pursuits they have not had time to indulge in previously. The Maintenance-free lifestyle lessens those homeowner responsibilities and is one of the hallmarks of 55+ living.
