Anyone looking into or live in an active seniors community?

A friend who lives in a multilevel CCRC (although some of it is just short term care or rentals, so no big buy in) invited me to play bridge and to have lunch a few times. The lunch was good and had several choices (sandwiches, salads, a special, entrees) and the servers were great, friendly, kids of about 18-22 years old. Friend said several were in college and would return for the summer and during breaks. They had a system where they get tips once or twice a year and split them based on the number of hours they worked. I was very very impressed by how friendly and accommodating they were (bringing extra sauces or silverware when asked, helping residents maneuver their wheelchairs, just chatting with someone who needed it).
