Retirement in Virginia Offers Many Rewards
Active adult communities in Virginia are becoming increasingly popular. With its abundant natural beauty, temperate climate and mix of charming small towns and modern cities, retirees are easily drawn to the Old Dominion. In fact, with the Baby Boom generation emerging onto the retirement scene, the State of Virginia estimates that by 2030 almost one in every five Virginians will be 65 or older. No wonder new Virginia senior housing communities are being built all over the state! Located in Roanoke, Christiansburg and Fredericksburg, our developments are near cities that offer retirees the perfect mix of culture and activity along with a relaxing pace.

Virginia Caters to Active Seniors
Those preparing to enter an active retirement phase of their lives will find that Virginia has much to offer. Benefits include a moderate cost of living, affordable housing options and a low crime rate.
It’s easy to pursue your interests here. You’ll be close to beaches, mountains, rivers and woodlands. A wide variety of interesting destinations throughout the state will find you planning day trips and overnight stays. In Virginia, history buffs are in their element; every corner of the state holds tales of our heritage worth the telling. Among the best-known of these is the Historic Triangle in southeastern Virginia, an area made up of Historic Jamestowne, Yorktown and, of course, Colonial Williamsburg.
The great outdoors also beckons with scenic drives, walking and biking trails and bountiful rivers and bays. And if you live for golf, you’ll find championship courses to challenge your level of play throughout the state.
In addition to national treasures such as Jefferson’s Monticello and Washington’s Mount Vernon, the Commonwealth offers a huge range of excellent museums to explore. But adults and (grand)children alike also love attractions such as Busch Gardens, Water Country USA and the Virginia Zoo! Virginia also offers the sports enthusiast everything from kayaking to college football to Triple-A pro baseball.
Our communities offer our residents the relaxed atmosphere of suburban Virginia senior housing coupled with the modern conveniences of nearby cities. And with so much to do in Virginia, living in a maintenance-free community means you have more time to get out and enjoy all the state has to offer.
