These communities vary greatly in size, type of homes from year long rentals(leases) to home ownership and Home Owner Associations (HOA) which include maintenance and activities.

A 55+ or  Active Adult community is a community designed specifically for persons age 55 and older. These communities are age-restricted, meaning residents have to meet the 55+ requirement in order to purchase a property. However, there may be some exceptions to this rule. Please refer to the community’s guidelines.

Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRC) also known as Life Plan Communities are a single campus offering onsite independent, assisted living, and nursing care facilities. These communities often have a financial entrance fee and may require you qualify both financially and medically to move in. 

There are subsidized senior apartment communities available for those who qualify financially.
