Active Adult Living — frequently asked questions

How much do active adult communities cost?+

Costs vary widely by market and whether you buy or rent, with HOA/amenity fees on top. Monthly costs often start around $1,800 and rise with amenities and location.

Is any care included?+

No — active adult living is purely lifestyle. If you later need help, you'd add home care or move to assisted living.

How is it different from independent living?+

They're similar, but active adult communities skew younger and more amenity-focused, often with homes you buy; independent living usually rents and includes services like dining.
