Alaska 55+ Communities

55+ communities, or active adult communities, are residential areas designed for individuals aged 55 and older. These communities offer a lifestyle tailored to older adults, featuring low-maintenance housing and various amenities such as fitness centers, swimming pools, and walking trails. Social interaction is encouraged through organized events, hobby groups, and recreational activities. Many communities provide additional services like healthcare facilities, transportation, and dining options. Located in desirable climates and scenic areas, they offer a serene and enjoyable living environment. The primary goal is to foster a vibrant, supportive atmosphere where residents can enjoy their retirement years with a focus on health, wellness, and social connections.

Alaska is one of the United States' true cultural treasures. Most residents of Alaska were born outside the state, and when they came to Alaska they brought their own traditions and desires.

Quirky and unique, Alaska is a place for lovers of the outdoors, nature, wildlife, and fishing. The state has more than three million lakes, three thousand rivers, and hundreds of miles of ocean shoreline. There are thousands of acres of virtually uninhabited land, and the highest mountain in North America, Mt. McKinley.

When planning retirement, Alaska is suited for those who enjoy cold weather, lush forests and snow-capped mountains.
