Anyone looking into or live in an active seniors community?

MIL’s part of town didn’t have anything like that. Nada. No bus service either. Not even dial-a-ride. Using Uber or Lyft was extra $$ and there weren’t a whole lot of drivers available…and my MIL refused to consider Uber or Lyft at all.

It was a neighborhood that worked fine for many years when she was driving. But she should have relocated once the driving stopped.

Every once in awhile, Spousal Unit will say, “Wouldn’t it be great if we could buy a house on a bunch of land?” NO. SMALLER home, NOT BIGGER! Meanwhile, the ideal place I would prefer would be a single story 2 BR condo. Doesn’t have to be in a 55+ community. But does have to be on 1st floor with no stairs. I don’t have issues with stairs now, but you never know what can happen down the road.
