Here is a portion from an article in the Tampa Bay Times from a year ago.

“The primary reason for Congress to create the Housing for Older Persons Act of 1995, HR 660, was to allow an exemption from age discrimination laws for such communities. It modifies the Fair Housing Act to allow age limits for those communities that comply with the adult community laws. It says that the community can limit residents under the age of 18. If your documents say 16, federal laws would take priority and your lower age for a resident would be 18. One of the requirements is that the board must take a census every two years that requires one person 55 or older in each home to register and show proof of age. In Florida, the board must register with the state Commission On Human Relations (fchr.state.fl.us) every two years. If the board does not follow the federal and state laws, it cannot limit any resident because of age.”
