Today’s Active Adult Communities
A new generation of active adults is changing the face of communities once designed to be destinations for retirees. Innovative new active adult communities cater to current lifestyles and growing trends in the over 55 population. Today’s active adults desire a taste of the good life, complete with business, travel, fine dining, fitness, spa services and much more.

Many active adult communities feature town square neighborhoods, complete with a central hub for socializing, enjoying coffee, connecting to the Internet, dining, working out and shopping. Others are mid-rise urban communities, with easy access to city life and culture. Still others offer a resort or country club feel, complete with golf, tennis, walking trails and social events.

Home designs reflect an increasing demand for livable floor plans with low maintenance, high-tech offices and extra bedrooms for visiting relatives.

An active adult community is not necessarily a retirement community because many residents continue to work full- or part-time. Some active adults have flexible schedules, allowing more time for travel, sports and socializing.
