Age restricted communities are no more in the favoring list of developers. They are switching to those which invite a broader range of residents.
Communities aimed at people older than 55 were springing up all over before the start of the housing meltdown. Enclaves for the elderly have diminished in popularity over the last couple of years. Even long-time senior-citizen communities like Sun City Grand in Surprise, Ariz. have been allowing people of ages 45 to 54 in 15 percent of the homes thereby expanding access.
According to Sun City Grand's membership director Meda Cates, as we age, we golf less, we spend less money doing activities, and we also wanted to be perceived as a younger community.
