Sun City is not the only active retirement community.
Where are the active retirement communities around Sacramento? A question I receive from folks that would like to live in a single story detached home, quiet neighborhood, and somewhere with the opportunity for an active social life. The answer I give most is “Sun City.” (I need to speak with Del Webb and ask for a referral fee.) I started thinking there must be other communities that older people can enjoy an active lifestyle. Today would be the day I discover new communities that cater to retired or soon to be retired individuals. I exclude myself, as I will work until the end or win the lottery, whichever comes first.
Because I live in east Sacramento County, I focused my research on that area. Not much to share, so I included El Dorado and Placer Counties. I have not included condos, townhouses or any assisted living venues.
Below is listed the community name within a city, a price you could expect to pay and other notes such as a website. I hope the information is helpful to those searching for active retirement communities around Sacramento. If I have missed something, send me an email with the correct info, and I will update this blog post with the information. The email address is vick@capitalburbsnests.com.
