My question to you all is, " Does anyone know of an active retirement community up north?" I have searched hours on the Web and have come up empty handed."
My only criteria is some place cooler. Thank you

The Villages here in Florida is unique and as far as I know there is nothing like it anywhere in NH where I spend the summer/Fall. There are retirement communities made up of rather expensive homes, but no activities. I would suggest you try renting for a summer in a state or area that you like and see what you think of it.
I am wondering whether you might like a mobile home park on a lake. Most people own their own homes and come for the weekends in the summer and get to know their neighbors and I think they might have activities. I know an owner of a park in Maine who winters in TV and I get the impression the really good parks are fully booked year to year, but it is worth seeing whether you could rent a home from someone in a park and try it on for size
