 55+ Active Adult Communities Nevada  

Age-Targeted Communities are similar to age-restricted, except their marketing targets adults 55 or older but are not explicitly age-restricted.

Leisure Communities are another option for retirees.

Homes in leisure communities are designed for empty nesters.

There are no age restrictions.

The environments often include amenities such as clubhouses, golf courses, and community pools in resort-like settings.

These active adult communities Nevada offer predominately two and three-bedroom homes and are perfect for those whose children have grown and moved away, although children are welcome.

They offer an array of homes that typically include features designed for a changing lifestyle.

The concept of 55+ communities is simple: people 55 or older live in a planned community with various amenities catering to the senior resident.

These residents usually live an active and healthy lifestyle, so the amenities are geared toward that.

The reality is that there are many variations of this concept.

For instance, some communities require only a minimum number of residents must be 55 or older, leaving the possibility that young families may become your neighbor.

And that’s fine for many seniors. It’s just something to be aware of.

Deciding if a 55+ is suitable for you is like any other major decision.

You must research, explore your options, and recognize potential pitfalls.

And ultimately, you’ll want to visit the active adult communities Nevada you’re interested in.

Many communities have conveniences (the amenities mentioned below) that seniors find irresistible.

Another convenience is that all your expenses—taxes, insurance, utilities, etc.- are wrapped up in one fee.

The maintenance and care of your property are eliminated: no more mowing the grass, raking leaves, or replacing a leaky gutter.

The Law and Age-Restricted Communities

You’ll find many variations of age-restricted communities, such as 55+, 62+, and 65+.

The U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development (HUD) and the Housing for Older Persons Act regulate these communities, which says that housing must include at least one person 55 or older in at least 80 percent of the occupied units.

This means one spouse can be under the required Age.

Also, those under 19 cannot be permanent residents.

These active adult communities Nevada are usually noted as “age-qualified” in their marketing brochures.

Then there are those communities marketed to a particular age group—”age-targeted”—but are not age-restrictive.

This means that younger couples with kids are permitted to live there.

And for many seniors, that’s just fine.

As you research locations and active adult communities Nevada amenities, consider other aspects not mentioned in the glossy brochures.

• What are your best retirement communities in Nevada neighbors like? Talk to them. Do they live there all year or part-time? Are they the kind of people you want to have for dinner? Do you share the same interests?
• Is the developer on the solid financial ground? If there are structural issues, do they have the resources to resolve them? What if homeowners start to default? Can they weather that kind of storm? Ask to see a copy of their budget and profit and loss statement. This should be readily available from the homeowner’s association (HOA).
• Is there a reserve fund for maintenance? This is often called a “sinking fund” and is money set aside for roof replacement, air conditioning replacement, etc. This is usually a line item on the HOA’s budget.
• Find out who owns the land adjacent to the community. What are the plans for the land? For example, you don’t want an airport being built next door.
• What rules will you have to follow? For example, some communities don’t allow residents to display flags, including the American flag. You can’t park an RV in the street or your driveway. You might not be able to paint your front door a different color. You may not be able to have a jungle gym in your backyard for the grandchildren. Make sure to check out the detail by asking to see a copy of the HOA’s bylaws.
