As the baby boomers start to approach later adulthood, they are poised to redefine the next step, retirement. Baby Boomers envision a very novel type of retirement. The differing needs of baby boomers are making retirement communities centered around golf courses out of date. Today's retirees want choices and they want freedom. Developers of active adult communities are designing new retirement communities far differently than before. They have added amenities geared to fitness and technology designed to appeal to this generation's nonstop lifestyle.
Las Vegas is the home of the finest retirement communities in the country. Many retirees reside in communities that are designated "active adult" or "age restricted." The homes in these communities range from condominiums to patio homes to manufactured homes to conventional free standing homes. As an example in Las Vegas, Siena is a new active adult community located in one of the newest villages of Summerlin.
The minimum age for Siena residents is 50 years old for one resident. The community offers a fitness center, an 18-hole championship golf course, and restaurants. Residents of Siena have an array of classes, activities, seminars and personal training to help them keep fit year-round. The community's 15,900 square feet, Tuscan-themed fitness center is equipped with cardiovascular and weight-training equipment, exercise rooms, and an indoor swim pavilion with pool and spa. In addition, there is an outdoor pool, and tennis and bocce courts. There are myriad opportunities for outdoor people. Security is also a top priority in adult communities.
Homes in Siena range from the villas to single-family homes - 1,200 square feet to more than 3,000 square feet - many with views of the mountains. Prices range from $160,000 to more than $600,000.
The Baby Boomers' advancement into retirement promises to redefine the way Americans think about their later years. In this new millennium, retirement communities offer the conveniences and variety for today's retirement solutions.
