Elegant Single Family Homes, a Grand Lodge and Mountain Views are Highlights of Anthem Ranch, a 55+ Community at the Base of the Majestic Rocky Mountains
Broomfield sits at the foot of the Rocky Mountains in sunny north central Colorado and is the site of Anthem Ranch, a 55+ community that is part of a larger master-planned development.

The Ranch's residences range in size from about 1,200 square feet to nearly 3,000 square feet. Most plans feature single-level living and have two bedrooms, two baths, and an attached two or three car garage. Rocky Mountain foothill views, a gourmet kitchen and a large great room are common. Exteriors are stucco or vinyl in tasteful, muted colors (gray, tan, avacado, etc.) with brick and stone accents.

Colorado:
Like California, the Colorado area was surrendered to the United States in 1848 at the end of the Mexican-American War. It did not become a state until 1876, 100 years after the nation's birth.
The Centennial State's geography includes high plains, deserts, foothills, and mountains. Its Rockies are part of the 3,000-plus mile geologic uplift known as the North American Cordillera. More than 50 of the Cordillera's peaks taller than 14,000 feet are in Colorado. Outdoor recreation ranges from backpacking and climbing to road cycling and skiing.
With roots in mining and agriculture, Colorado's economy has branched in many directions. It currently has a high concentration of tech and scientific research companies. Food processing, manufacturing, and tourism round out the state's industries.
The Centennial State maintains a long list of superlatives. It has the highest paved road, the deepest geothermal hot spring, and the nation's largest concentration of scenic byways. Colorado is the only state in the Union to reject the Olympics and one of the first to legalize recreational marijuana.
Is Everyone in a 55+ Community Really 55+?
Not everyone who lives in a 55+ community is age 55 or better. Generally, at least 80% of residents must be at least age 55 (and at least one occupant of each housing unit must be age 55), while the remaining 20% are allowed to be younger (but usually at least age 45). Children are allowed to visit but generally cannot stay more than two weeks at a time. It is also usually the case that older, more established 55+ communities have an older residential demographic.
