Exploring the Active Adult Lifestyle in Colorado

Welcome to our occasional weekend newsletter, which focuses on interesting active adult and 55+ communities. 
 
This issue will explore a sampling of the active communities available in the great State of Colorado. Colorado has cities, college towns, resort destinations - and gorgeous mountain scenery. One of our most popular retirement destinations, Colorado also has a wide range of active adult and retirement communities to choose from.
 
 
Colorado  Active Adult Communities Sampler:
These 3 communities represent just the tip of the (mountain): Our Colorado Directory features reviews of 12 Colorado towns and 30 active communities: 
 
The Carillon represents a different kind of retirement community in the exciting city of Boulder. Just down the street from the University of Colorado, the Carillon provides more of an urban living experience than most such communties. Brain fitness is one of  the many wellness activities. Assisted living is available, so this is the kind of place where you can retire and not have to worry about what the future might bring.  
 
Antelope Ridge is a very different alternative to the Carillon. Located in northeast Colorado Springs, Antelope Ridge is a resort-style community, where residents enjoy a pleasant, peaceful lifestyle that comes with community-wide covenants. Because these are manufactured homes they offer a lot of house for the money - starting in the $70's. There is a 4,000 sq. ft. community center among  other amenities to be enjoyed.

At the completely opposite end of the spectrum from either Antelope Ridge or the Carillon is the Four Seasons Private Residences property in Denver.  The residences occupy part of this 45 story luxury hotel, and offer apartments from 1 to 4 bedrooms. Prices start at $800,000.  Enjoy every imaginable luxury amenity and service- like the rooftop pool! 
 
Looking for a custom retirement report?  Take our free, 10 question Retirement Ranger quiz and narrow down your possibilities. For example, select only towns in the southeast, or only college towns. Or, ask for towns with higher than 40 degrees average January temperature.
