The neighbors always greet new faces. Converse with anyone to get to know one another
I've noticed , because I regularly participated or worked in the senior community that it allows people of all ages to participate in activities that keep the community healthy and encourage economic stability. It is a place where older persons can easily stay connected with others while maintaining independence.
I'm the youngest home owner on my street and a single parent my neighbors noticed that and the pitch in and help with getting packages while I'm at work and help me out with lawn care and different fixtures in my house. Very friendly neighbor hood
