About 55+ Living in Broward County

Active adult communities in Broward County

Florida is one of the most popular places in the country for active adult living, and Broward County is a big part of the reason. A 55-and-over community is an age-restricted neighborhood built around a low-maintenance, amenity-rich lifestyle. Most center on a clubhouse with a fitness center, pools, courts for tennis or pickleball, and a calendar of clubs and social events run with the help of a lifestyle director. Homes tend to be single-story or have a first-floor primary suite, and the HOA handles lawn care and much of the exterior upkeep, which frees residents to travel and enjoy the amenities rather than maintain a yard. Under the federal Housing for Older Persons Act, at least one resident in each home usually must be 55 or older, with the community keeping at least 80% of its homes in that age group. Buyers should budget for an HOA fee on top of the purchase price and confirm exactly what it covers. Pricing in Broward County spans from attainable villas and manufactured homes to gated resort communities with golf, so there is an active adult option across most budgets.
