Correct. See slide 12 of 13, noting the Methodology that was used to come up with their final list. Follow the link noted there:

"Towns Rather Than Active Communities
Continuing with the procedural change we made last year to concentrate on towns/cities rather than active communities, the latter were excluded from the 2012 list. That being said, several active communities were popular enough to have made the list had we included them (The Villages would have been in the top 10, and Sun City would been somewhere in the 80′s. See our 2011 list of “The 100 Most Popular Active Adult Communities” for more).
