That does not mean we don't have friends of all ages, but hoped to find our peer group here. Living with people who have finished their careers and raising their children and who have lived at least five decades is comfortable and nice for me.

Please don't yell at me. That is how I feel.
No one is going to yell! I am sure most would agree with you. I remember moving into our neighborhood when our kids were young (and so we're we). We raised our children and in the blink of an eye all those years passed and we were the "nice, elderly couple" in the neighborhood! Although we lived in a wonderful neighborhood, we wanted to be amongst people our age.
