Discover the Best Biking Communities

When you think about retirement, do you visualize riding a bike in a t-shirt on a sunny day? Many people do, and great news: there are many communities that are built for people with this vision.

Why choose a great biking destination for retirement?

For those who love an active lifestyle, finding a retirement destination where you can ride your bike is often a priority. There are people who like to ride their bike to the park, or the grocery store with a basket on the front of your beach cruiser. Then, there are people who love recreational road cycling—longer rides and beautiful views on paved roads. Last but not least, there’s gravel biking or mountain biking, both for the real adventurous retiree who’s looking for a good workout. No matter which camp you fall into, finding a retirement destination that’s prime for biking can make a big difference in your daily lifestyle.

 

Thankfully, you can find great bike towns all over the country. Key West in Florida is a great biking destination where you barely need a car to get around. Gainesville, Florida, is also very bike-friendly with great weather and dedicated bike boulevards separate from roads. Tempe, Arizona, is also known for their biking infrastructure efforts, as they’re creating bike underpasses for intersections allowing bikers to get across roads without ever being near a crossing car.

What other benefits do biking destinations bring?

If you love cycling, you already know what benefits it brings you: it makes you happy, keeps you fit, lets you explore the great outdoors, and even gets you from place to place. But there are many other benefits you can get from retiring in a biking-friendly destination.

  • Endless ride options: When you’re in a destination that’s prime for biking, you’ll have plenty of rides to choose from when you want to get out there. You’re not limited to one or two paths—there are usually 10+ options to choose from.
  • Safety first: When you’re in a place where biking is a priority, you’ll find you feel safer. This means well-maintained biking trails and paths, green paths alongside the road, and a population that respects bikers will share the road.
  • Cheap transportation: When you’re riding a bike to the grocery store or to the park, you’re saving on gas—great for the environment and your wallet.
  • Active lifestyle: Those who retire in places with great biking can easily stay active and healthy. You’re surrounded by others who love to get out on the bike path, and you can find others to ride with so you’re never on your own.
  • Weather of your choice: When you’re biking, the best weather is mild—so you’ve got your choice of options along the mild coastal states.,

Fairfield Glade | Tennessee Resort Communities | Best Golf TN

Fairfield Glade & Fairfield North

Fairfield Glade, TN
Homes, Townhomes: $300K - $900K Lots: $10K - $300K

Fairfield Glade is perched high atop the Cumberland Plateau, and offers serene mountain beauty as it sits on the highest point between the Rocky and Smoky Mountains. One of the favorite features of this area is the moderate year round temperatures. The pleasant summer days and the cool summer nights can be attributed to the Cumberland Plateau’s 2,000-foot-elevation, allowing for more comfortable temperatures and much lower humidity than most areas of the south.

What to do with all the fabulous weather and beautiful scenery? Golfing, boating, fishing, hiking, walking, swimming, tennis/pickleball-the list of fun activities available is simply endless! Plus, an outdoor amphitheater and biergarten just opened to host live music, movies, food and community events – it’s a great gathering place for neighbors to come together.

The community offers multiple subdivisions with a wide range of home sizes, price ranges, and views that include mountain, lake, golf and protected woodlands. Another attribute is the incredible cost of living in Fairfield Glade – no state income tax on wages, very reasonable home prices, and extremely low property taxes and club dues.

Fairfield Glade is just 6 miles from the city limits of Crossville, a small town, but bustling with activities. Crossville’s central location on Interstate 40 has made it a hub for many outlying areas and has given rise to a booming retail environment, offering shopping, dining and entertainment choices. The community is also located right off I-40, less than an hour from Knoxville, and an hour and a half from either Nashville or Chattanooga.

Testimonial
“The biggest deciding factor for choosing Fairfield Glade was the people, both in the Glade and in the town. When we came to visit the first time, we had no appointment and no agenda – we just popped in and wandered around. Folks stopped us everywhere we went – Food City, the Wellness Center, Villa Pizza – and just chatted. No one was in a hurry, everyone was interested in our story, everyone had some tidbit to share. The same thing happened on our second visit, and then on every visit we made once construction started. We felt like we had become part of the community before we were actually part of the community.” Michelle and James Bayless

Fairfield Glade has 11 lakes and two marinas.
