Publisher's note

An engaging portrait of life in America's growing number of gated retirement communities offers a firsthand analysis of a major trend in American society as growing numbers of baby boomers retire, examines the peculiarities of living in these senior utopias, and assesses the social, cultural, and family implications of this increasingly popular phenomenon.

Annotation

Many Americans are choosing to live in large, picturesque retirement communities that are really self-sorted enclaves of similar-minded individuals like themselves. They establish rules and set up barriers that prescribe how inhabitants should live and behave, resulting in segregated senior cloisters. Andrew Blechman explores these retirement communities, discussing their pros and cons, and describing their sometimes Stepford-esque habits and ways.
