The decision to move to an active adult living community is an exciting step toward a care-free, engaging lifestyle. With so many options available, however, it is important to ask the right questions to ensure you find a community that meets your unique needs and expectations.
To help guide your decision, here are some important questions to consider as you begin touring communities.
What housing options are available?
Understanding what housing options are available is crucial to your decision-making process. Communities may offer a range of housing styles—such as single-family homes, townhomes, or apartments—and different pricing models. During a tour, be sure to ask about the available floor plans, square footage, and features such as fully equipped kitchens, in-unit washers and dryers, or energy-efficient designs.

What types of social activities and amenities are available?
A main advantage of living in an active adult community is the opportunity to engage in social activities and enjoy a vibrant, connected lifestyle with like-minded peers. When searching for a community to call home, ask about their on-site amenities and organized events, like game nights, happy hours, or on-site fitness centers. Are there any opportunities for learning new skills or hobbies? Are fitness programs or classes available, such as yoga or walking clubs?

What is the surrounding area like?
While the community itself is important, its location also plays a significant role in daily life. Be sure to ask about nearby shopping, dining, healthcare facilities, and entertainment options. Are there parks, walking trails, or cultural attractions nearby? If you love to travel, consider proximity to major highways or airports.

What services are included in the monthly fees?

Ask about services such as landscaping, snow removal, utilities, security, and access to community amenities. Understanding these details will help you compare different communities and make an informed decision.
