The term "retirement community" can refer to many types of housing available to seniors. Typically, it is used to describe a community specifically for people ages 55 or over who are healthy enough to live in an independent fashion. Choosing a great retirement community can give you opportunities to meet new people with whom you share common interests, while freeing you from some of the tasks of traditional home ownership, such as lawn care and snow removal. If you are considering a move to a retirement community, here are a few guidelines:

  1. Ask friends and family members for referrals. Often, someone knows of a terrific place, and there is no better advertisement than a satisfied customer!

  2. Tour several places so that you can get a feel for what's available in your area. Facilities vary immensely, so you'll increase your chances of finding the "right fit" for you if you shop around a bit. Be sure to talk to current residents as well as setting some time aside to spend with the staff. Residents will be able to give you an authentic picture of life in the community and by talking to staff members, you will quickly know whether or not they seem friendly and cheerful.

  3. Don't be shy. If the facility is subject to licensing by your state (regulations vary), ask to see copies of the latest inspection reports. Take note of any violations, especially those relating to resident safety.

  4. A question of age. Although there are always age restrictions for residents of retirement communities, check to be sure that there are provisions in place to allow for younger guests. If your children and grandchildren come for a visit, you want to be sure that they will be able to stay with you.
