Premier 55+ Communities

Embark on the next chapter of your life in style and comfort. Ideal-LIVING’s selection of 55+ communities caters to those who seek more than just a home, but a place to live life to its fullest. Discover communities where every detail is designed with your active lifestyle in mind.

All active adult communities are designed with mature residents in mind--from floor plans, to amenities, programs, and resources--but not all have an age requirement. True 55+ communities are age-restricted, meaning that one of the household’s residents must be 55 years of age or older in order to purchase property there. Of course, visitors of a younger age are welcomed.

What Are 55+ Communities?

55+ communities, also known as active adult communities, are designed for those who are 55 and older and crave an energetic, fulfilling lifestyle among peers. These communities offer a blend of residential options, from single-family homes to apartments and condos, all situated within a setting that promotes community engagement, health, and happiness.

Why Choose a 55+ Community?

Active Lifestyle:

Embrace a community where staying active is part of the daily routine. Enjoy golf, tennis, swimming, fitness classes, and more.

Community and Connection:

Find camaraderie and build lasting friendships with neighbors who share your zest for life.

Maintenance-Free Living:

Say goodbye to yard work and exterior maintenance, and hello to more free time for hobbies and relaxation.

Security and Peace of Mind:

Many 55+ communities offer gated access and security personnel, ensuring a safe environment for all residents.

Luxurious Amenities:

Clubhouses, spas, arts and crafts studios, and dining venues are just the beginning. Live where luxury meets convenience.

Exploring the Best States for 55+ Living

Discover the charm of Florida’s endless summer, the serene beauty of the Carolinas, or the rustic appeal of the Southwest. Each state offers its unique blend of climate, culture, and community amenities. What's the best state for you? It's where your desires align with the lifestyle offered by our handpicked communities.

Navigating the World of 55+ Communities

Finding the Right Fit:

With options spanning the coastal, urban, and rural landscapes, finding the perfect community is about matching your lifestyle aspirations with the amenities and social atmosphere of a community.

Understanding the Rules:

Age restrictions ensure that communities cater specifically to the lifestyle needs of active adults, but policies can vary. It’s important to understand the specifics, such as guest policies and age requirements, which can influence your decision.

FAQs for Prospective Residents

Can Under-55s Live in a 55+ Community?

While the primary resident must meet the age requirement, communities often have rules allowing a percentage of residents to be younger. Additionally, spouses and children can have different rules applied.

What Are the Disadvantages?

Considerations include adherence to community rules and HOA fees. However, many find the trade-offs well worth the benefits.

How Do I Choose the Best 55+ Community?

Consider your lifestyle preferences, desired location, budget, and the types of activities you enjoy. Many communities offer "stay and play" packages to experience life there before making a decision.
