"Beginning in 2006, the first wave of Boomers will turn 60. And, many are expected to shy away from retirement communities because that's where 'all those old people live.' Home builders understand this. Their solution is the increasing construction of 'age-targeted' housing, which is designed for this age category but doesn't advertise that. It's for those who want to live in a pre-retirement community." (CHICAGO TRIBUNE) This article describes the advantages and amenities available at age-targeted development communities.
