Many seniors find that they simply do not want to worry about maintaining a home preferring to spend their leisure time in other ways. Healthy independent seniors may find they need nothing more than a community where they can fully enjoy pursuing their personal interests. For them moving to an active independent living retirement community might be the best fit for their budget and lifestyle where options include renting an apartment or the outright purchase of a property.
Many active senior communities have information packets that may be requested in advance and offer tours of the community itself. A personal visit will give valuable first-hand information and an opportunity to meet current residents who can offer their own experiences providing an insider’s view on the community. Be sure to determine if personal interests and pursuits are offered such as health and fitness programs organized activities sports etc. Other day-to-day living arrangements should also be considered such as shopping centers and grocery stores within easy walking distance and the availability of transportation services provided. Where is the community located in proximity to major health care providers? What security measures are in place for residents? For ultimate peace of mind some seniors rent a home under a short-term agreement at first to make sure the community provides for their needs and lives up to their expectations.
