What is a 55+ active senior community?
About 55+ communities. A 55+ community is a retirement community with an age restriction. Usually at least one resident must be over 55 years old. Some communities will raise the age restriction to 62 or even older.
Most seniors hope to stay in their home. However, they also realize that a 55+ community will provide many benefits their current home does not provide.
Homes in a 55+ community are designed to be senior friendly. They provide amenities with seniors in mind. Houses are one level, condo complexes are equipped with elevators. In most cases, there is a clubhouse, where residents meet other seniors.
Homes in a 55+ community offer much more than what your current home can provide. There is no need for any modifications â you can expect a comfortable and worry free living for years to come.
The biggest benefits that 55+ communities offer is the built-in network of peers right in the neighborhood. You are likely to make friends easily and keep them in all the years you live there.
Many 55+ communities offer extra features to enhance the safety of residents. They are often gated, sometimes with security guards.
55+ Communities, including many in the Torrance area, offer attractive amenities. Most common are swimming pools, spas, fitness rooms, gold courses, walking paths, community gardens.
Many 55+ communities also organize regular activities for residents, such as fitness classes, yoga classes, bible studies, cooking classes, crafts, trips, movie nights. The activities make it easy for retirees to try new things and stay active throughout their senior years.
Many maintenance issues are handled by community associations to ensure that 55+ community living is truly âworry-freeâ.
