NOTE: Here, you will only see senior living communities with homes for sale. We do not include assisted living facilities or apartments for rent.

Once upon a time options were quite limited but that’s no longer true. Yes, we still have the Friendly Valley senior living neighborhoods and of course there are a number of senior specific mobile home parks, but you might be surprised at some of the senior homes in the newer developments.

In fact, some of these neighborhoods are quite luxurious, resembling small resorts. Others are more modest but one thing they all have in common are amenities geared toward active, 55 plus seniors.

Senior Living Community Prices

To be sure, brand new homes in the recently developed 55 Plus communities can be quite costly. Thankfully, there are still some reasonably priced homes usually available in Friendly Valley.

How are the Senior Living Communities in Santa Clarita Different than Non Age Restricted neighborhoods?

This is an interesting question and it really depends on the community. Some of these newer 55 Plus communities are similar to mini resorts. Usually, but not always, the homes tend to be smaller and are single story. Even if it’s a 2 story home, usually the master bedroom and bathrooms downstairs.

One thing senior living communities all have in common are the amenities. Usually the amenities are quite nice and geared toward seniors. They also have organized, age appropriate activities and clubs.

Here in Santa Clarita, most of the senior living communities are gated and secure. Many of the homes will be a bit smaller and often single story homes.

There’s plenty more to share on this but I think you get the picture. For sure, the newer homes will be more accessible for seniors AND more expensive. Keep in mind, these senior designated 55 Plus communities are intended for ACTIVE seniors and NOT assisted living.
