Social Engagement  
Perhaps the biggest benefit of active adult communities is the social aspect. Loneliness and social isolation are issues that plague older adults, with studies showing that social isolation can lead to many negative health outcomes, including depression, anxiety, and cognitive decline. As noted in a study cited by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, social isolation significantly increases a person’s risk of premature death from all causes, a risk that “may rival those of smoking, obesity, and physical inactivity.” And as we age, the opportunity to form organic connections with relatable peers becomes less likely. Active adult communities provide a built-in social network, with opportunities for residents to connect with others through shared interests and activities. 

Convenience  
Although Active Adult communities strive to create an atmosphere far from stereotypical senior living, it is important to acknowledge the need for convenience-based services within our communities. The natural progression of aging often creates a ripple effect, resulting in periods of isolation and a likely decline in quality of life. The addition of convenience-based services, such as shuttles to area attractions and medical appointments, 24-hour maintenance and more, allows for residents to maintain a high level of independence and overall satisfaction.  

Lifestyle 
Unlike many multi-family options, Active Adult communities are designed with a specific resident in mind, allowing for the ideal backdrop for a vacation everyday lifestyle. Day time activities, tailored classes and instruction, targeted amenities and more, coupled with a choice-based system allow for residents to truly feel engaged and at home.
