"Deciding where to retire used to be like deciding on a summer camp--there were day camps and sleep-away camps, but the activities were pretty much the same. But just as summer camps now cater to interests ranging from archery to zoology, retirement communities are springing up that let you grow old in the company of people with similar backgrounds or mutual passions that go far deeper than a shared interest in golf." (NEW YORK TIMES) This article examines the variety of retirement communities that have been developed "in which older people can live among peers who share their specific interests and values."
