Black Hills - South Dakota 55+ Communities

55+ Communities, also called 55 Plus Communities, are active retirement havens for adults, offering varied amenities and housing from golf course homes to serene city living among like-minded neighbors. They typically include pools, Pickleball, Shuffleboard, tennis courts, clubhouses with kitchens, and championship golf courses in gated, resort-like environments.

The Black Hills encompass the Black Hills National Forest and are home to the tallest peaks of continental North America east of the Rockies. Today, the South Dakota side of the Black Hills is economically and socially more like Wyoming or Colorado than the Dakotas. The nearby reservations and Ellsworth Air Force Base make for a unique diversity in population different from that of the rest of Wyoming or South Dakota. As the economy of the Black Hills has shifted from natural resources including mining and timber, the hospitality and tourism industry has grown to take its place. The foundation of tourism in the Black Hills are the parks and monuments including Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, Crazy Horse Memorial, and the proximity to the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.
