RETIREMENT COMMUNITIES offer TONS OF ACTIVITIES FOR SENIORS

Pat B.

We just moved to a retirement community in Arizona. Sun City West. I never imagined, even a few years ago, that I'd ever consider living in a 55+ community but here we are. We weren't looking in Sun City, but our agent suggested we take a look. I wasn't interested, but my husband perked up when she mentioned all of the clubs, golf, swimming, tennis and other activites.

So we took a look, and here we are. It was a great choice for us because my husband would never be happy just sitting around the house, the clubs are a great way to make friends, the pools, tennis and pickle ball courts, bowling, billiards and more keep us involved and active. We can't say enough good things about it.

TELL ME...What are the Best Cities to Live In

GIVE ME some ideas for a fun cheap date

If you live in states with more arid climates like parts of New Mexico and Texas, Arizona , parts of the California Desert region or Las Vegas Nevada, chances are your summer activities will revolve around water. 110-122 degree weather is just too hot to do much more than veg in cool lakes or pools. Lake Mead in Las Vegas, Lake Pleasant or other smaller lakes in Arizona mean fun in the sun with watercraft (boats and jet-skis mostly). Other outdoor activities must be done around dawn, before the heat rises above 85 degrees. The rest of the day will be spent doing indoor activities...including shopping.

The winters in Arizona are mild so outdoor activities such as bike riding, motorcycle riding, golf, tennis, hiking and more are activities boomers can experience during those months.

.MOUNTAIN LIVING

The mountains around the country offer lakes and rivers for boating, canoeing, kiyaking, tubing and more. Since the weather isn't as hot as more desert climates, there is more to choose from during the summer months. Waterskiing

Hiking, horseback riding, shopping in trendy towns along with fishing and sight-seeing is more pleasant with more moderate temperatures. Winter activities include snowmobiling, cross country skiing, downhill skiing/snowboarding and indoor activities like reading, chess, scrabble and soaking in the hot tub. A favorite spot in the West, Island Park Idaho is only about 22 miles outside the west entrance to Yellowstone and a two hour drive to Jackson Hole.
