New Jersey:

New Jersey is a peninsula, the fourth smallest state by area but the 11th largest by population. It is, in fact, the most densely populated state in the country. About 90% of its people live in an urban area.

In the early-1600s, the Dutch were the first Europeans to make land claims in New Jersey. The state was one of the Thirteen Colonies that revolted against British rule during the American Revolution.

In 1804, New Jersey was the last northern state to abolish slavery. In the 19th-century its factories helped drive the Industrial Revolution, and through WWI and WWII, the state was a center for war production, especially naval construction.

Today, New Jersey has more than 50 resort cities and towns, including Asbury Park, Wildwood, Seaside Heights, Cape May and Atlantic City.

Speaking of Atlantic City, its street names come from the board game Monopoly, and it has the longest boardwalk in the world.

The first baseball game was played in Hoboken, and the first drive-in movie theatre was in Camden.

55+ Communities

The concept of living in an active adult community started in the 1950s and 1960s. The first 55+ community was in Youngtown, Arizona and opened in 1954 (it removed its age restriction in 1999). Del Webb's Sun City, also in Arizona, opened in 1960 and is the longest-running 55+ community in the U.S. DelWebb is still building 55+ developments today.

Other builders, catching on to the baby boomer retirement wave, have also been building 55+ communities. Today the largest 55+ community is The Villages in central Florida. It has three zip codes, nearly 60,000 homes and sprawls across 200,000 acres.

People are drawn to these communities because most residents are of the same socioeconomic background. They share a common history and outlook. It is easy to make new friends and find a sense of community. And 55+ community amenities, particularly in newer developments, are especially appealing. They often rival resort amenities (and are usually what drive costs up). Aside from summer camp or an all-inclusive resort, where can you find golf courses, marinas, planned activities, fitness centers and much more, all for one price?
