Why are Active Adult Communities So Expensive?

This is a common question - why are active adult communities, whether they be age-targeted or age-restricted, so expensive?  Generally, the answer is because they have a lot of amenities, services and facilities that regular neighborhoods just do not have.  Active adult developments, especially newer ones, like to think of themselves as resorts, and in many case, they come close.  Resort-style swimming pools, large, lavish clubhouses, riding stables, beaches, marinas, lifelong learning opportunities, trips, planned activities, an activities director, medical services and concierge services all add to the price of a community.   Even developments with manufactured homes can be expensive - the homes may be reasonably priced, but the lease lot fees can be high.
