55+ Communities
For the independent, social, older adult, being part of a 55+ community is a lifestyle you’ll love. Communities in Metro Denver & the Rocky Mountain foothills are all the more inspiring thanks to their naturally beautiful location and proximity to recreational activities, both indoors and outdoors.
There are many reasons to look at 55+ communities. For adults who wish to downsize, who want to take advantage of new retirement, or who simply want to make a great change, these neighborhoods are all about community and quality of life.
Types of Active Adult Communities
Moving to a 55+ community in Colorado presents many options. You are sure to find the right type of active adult community that will suit your needs.
Communities with single-family homes allow for privacy and space, especially enticing if you are used to living in a detached home and would like to keep the same setup. There are many options for floor plans and sizes of homes, and upscale amenities like fireplaces and central air are often included.
If you prefer condo living, there are 55+ communities that are perfect for your needs, with a manageable unit size and social connections as standard.
Townhomes and patio homes are also great options for older adults. With these options, senior adults are generally only responsible for the interior of their homes. In most cases, they will not need to take care of snow removal, garbage collection, and other exterior responsibilities. All the more time to get out and enjoy the community!
Luxury communities add a little something extra, whether it is larger lot or home sizes, upgraded interior features, or upscale community amenities, such as ballrooms, arts studios, or restaurants.
Golf communities are a specific type of luxury community for the 55+ set who wants to spend a lot of time on the links. Here you will enjoy membership benefits and easy access to top-notch golf courses, along with friends and neighbors who love golf as much as you do.
Any of these communities may be gated, adding an extra element of security.
Finally, seniors have the choice between 55+ communities in town or in the mountains. Both offer advantages, and the great thing about this area is that the mountains and the city are never too far away from one another.
Retirement Home Amenities
Choosing a 55+ community over a mixed-age neighborhood offers unique amenities that you can-not find elsewhere. You can rest assured that your community will be quiet, with no children residents around! It’s easy to relax and enjoy your social life with your peers in this type of setting.
Communities like this are an excellent balance between the independence of living alone, and the safety and security of a neighborhood built for older adults. Gated entrances and exits, security pa-trols, safety features in the home, and optional in-home assistance make life easy and secure.
Shared resources like clubhouses, pools, and fitness rooms let residents access anything and every-thing they need to have fun on site. Many communities also enjoy regular planned excursions, based around the interests and enjoyment of residents.
