7 Unique Advantages of Living in a 55+ Community

55+ retirement communities are a great living option for retired, pre-retired and parents whose kids have moved away from the nest. Why wouldn’t they be? Living in one of these communities provides many benefits for its tenants. Take a look below to see some of the great benefits you could experience if you were living in a 55+ community.

Low Maintenance

Living in a low-maintenance home is the most significant benefit for those who just want to relax and chill. Doing things like cutting the lawn, fixing the pipes or even repairing that pesky dishwasher issue no longer have to be worries of yours. Many 55+ communities provide these types of services; all it requires is for you to report it to their front desk or give them a phone call.

Amenities and Activities Galore

There’s no shortage of fun activities that you can do in a 55+ community. Whether it’s a state-of-the-art clubhouse, yoga studio, lounge area, catering kitchen, swimming pool, bocce and pickleball court (pickleball is one of the fastest-growing sports in North America), hiking trails or fire pit, you will not be disappointed with the number of things you can do.

The Social Gatherings

Many 55+ communities will have their own social gatherings for all citizens to enjoy. That means you’ll find extraordinary people who would love to chat and have a fabulous time. Whether you’re catching a flick on old-school movie nights or calling B12 while playing an intense game of Bingo, you’ll always run into people who share your interests.

The Age Restriction

Because 55+ communities are restricted to people aged 55 and up, your chances of creating new friendships will be through the roof. But don’t worry; your grandkids can always come to visit. 

White-Glove Service While Your Gone

Did you plan a trip to the Florida Keys but are worried about the house’s upkeep? No problem. As we mentioned before, most 55+ communities provide maintenance services for you, and this especially applies if you’re looking to get away for a little while. Just lock up, leave and the community maintenance team will take great care of your home while you’re gone.

Top-Notch Security

Speaking of being gone, there’s no need to worry about your home while you enjoy that margarita night in the Keys. Many 55+ homes provide home security systems that will keep you and your home safe. Now you can keep your sanity whether you’re at home or out of it. 

Your Health Always Matters

Regarding your health, an active lifestyle is one part of the puzzle. Many communities offer different fitness programs and activities, like golf, yoga, shuffleboard, walking and more. If something happens to you that requires immediate care, you can take solace in knowing that many 55+ communities are placed close to nearby hospitals. 

As you can see, living in a 55+ community has many incredible benefits attached to it. The best part is that you’ll find many of the same benefits and more while living at Preserve at Marsh Creek.
