As for "everything is geared toward old people", I don't think so. We've never lived anywhere where year-round golf, bicycling, softball, outdoor swimming and tennis, pickle ball, dragon boating, polo, sand volleyball, and especially live music on 3 town squares 365 nights per year with healthy retailers all open were even a remote possibility.

IMO only a person who does not live here would say your last sentence!

Absolutely agree.
