For a community to be considered "housing for older persons" as a 55+ community, the housing must be intended and operated for occupancy by persons 55 years of age or older and meet the following requirements:

At least 80% of the occupied units are occupied by at least one person 55 years of age or older.
The facility or community publishes and adheres to policies and procedures that demonstrate its intent to in fact be a provider of housing for older persons.
The facility or community complies with rules established by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for verification of occupancy.
THANK YOU FOR A RESONABLE POST! This topic comes up periodically on here. We all need to remember we were given this information when we bought here: "occupied by at least one person 55 years of age" --occupied-not owned. And this law does not exclude under 55 and over 19 from owning or occupying-as long as person living within the home is over 55.
End of Story!
