15 Most Popular Active Adult Communities in the West – Couldn’t Be More Interesting
Category: Active adult communities
June 8, 2022 — It is fascinating to see which of the thousands of 55 plus and active communities reviewed at Topretirements attract the most attention from our Members and visitors. After examining site visit data from the first 5 months of 2022, here are the 15 most popular communities in the states west of the Mississippi at Topretirements. If you are considering communities east of here, don’t miss the “Most Popular Active Adult Communities in the Southeast“.
A few words about these selections
The most amazing thing about these communities is their diversity and variety. We are not sure why they emerged at the top of popularity (most page views on our site), but they are the communities our Members and guests most wanted to learn about. Their variety speaks to the idea that there no cookie cutter community approach that appeals to everyone. Instead, people are very different in what they are looking for – and the good thing is there is a community for everyone. While these active adult and 55+ communities are very different, they are the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the variety that is available in the U.S. Interesting enough, only one of these communities, Quail Run, was a repeat from our 2019 ranking.

This great comment came in from Jay:
My wife and I visited Sun City Oro Valley last spring as we're nearing retirement and are planning to relocate to a desert climate. Oro Valley is beautiful area and Sun City has a lot to offer. We especially enjoyed lunch in the restaurant overlooking the golf course with mountains as the backdrop. They even had live music in the patio section of the restaurant. They only had a couple of houses on the market at the time we visited and none of them really suited us. This seems like a great community! For us we're leaning toward a new build which isn't offered here and plan to continue our search with another 3 week trip to the southwest this spring.
