Mesa, AZ 55+ Retirement Communities and Homes

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.

Phoenix Arizona is by far one of the more popular retirement destinations for 55+ retirement living in America due to its relatively low cost of living, sunny days and top rated golf courses and 55+ communities. Sun City, just northeast of Phoenix, was the first active adult community in the country making the Phoenix area ground zero for active retirement living for over 60 years. "The Valley of the Sun," as the Phoenix metro area is known, is home to more than four million residents, making it one of the largest and fastest-growing areas of the country. And the nickname is well-chosen: Phoenix enjoys an average of 325 days of sunshine every year. Also, many 55+ retirement communities is why this area is one of the more popular retirement destination outside of Phoenix.
