Why would a youngster want to live here?

It’s extremely safe, most if not all people are approachable.

The amenities, the beauty, the work opportunities, change of life and scenery.

I have zero complaints living here and I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else in the world.

Not to mention the fact that I’m very extroverted and really enjoy being around people.

The only complaint I have is that the regular Walmart is 30 minutes away. But that doesn’t even count as a complaint.

Most if not all of my interactions with the people I’ve met have been wholesome.

First off - since this is a 55+ community, the availability of "single" people will mostly be widows and widowers. Not exclusively, but mostly. People who have already grown up, had jobs, and contributed to society in some way other than living with their parents in a retirement community at age 27.

Second - consider that children under 19 aren't allowed to live here. So if you DO meet "the one" and decide to start your family, you'll need to do it somewhere else. Might want to start working on preparing for that.

You asked - that's my suggestion to you.

How does this 80/20 55+ rule get enforced?

Agree. A 27 year old living here is not healthy. Not seeing any children, not interacting with people your own age, not out in the real world cuz this ain't the real world. Being with mainly old people all day I would find depressing at 27 years old. Not my business, but since you posted about it I'll give it.

Many of these young adults will want to have kids. Those kids are not, and should not, be welcome to live in this community. There aren't accommodations for them here, there aren't a lot of sidewalks, there is ONE playground just outside Sumter Square, people aren't allowed to put swingsets in their yards, and none of the amenities are available to under 19 EXCEPT for the family pools.

This is by design. It was built this way because this is NOT a family community. It's a senior community.
