In the United States, people don't call the elderly the sunset, but the sun, hence the name Sun City Center. Sun City Center in Florida, USA, is one of the most mature elderly communities in the world and one of the largest and best elderly communities in the United States. Located on the west coast of Florida, the center has 654.38+0.6 million families from all over the United States and around the world, and has been in a continuous growth trend.
In Sun City, no matter what age group the elderly choose, they will enjoy an active lifestyle of providing for the aged.

The above communities share a post office, a supermarket, a medical institution and a bank. Everyone can enjoy indoor and outdoor swimming pools, tennis, roulette games, lawn bowling, fitness and entertainment centers and other facilities by paying a certain fee every year.
In addition, there are various clubs in the community, which are part of the university for the aged, offering more than 80 courses and organizing activities, including carpentry, sewing workshops and even Chinese painting. The construction, management and operation of Sun City are all centered on the elderly.
In terms of income, Sun City's income mainly comes from one-time sales income and long-term income, including apartment rental income and the use of supporting facilities. The long-term income of Sun City Center is an important part of Sun City Center.

These two facilities are open to the public.

Second, the terraced nursing community
Terrace is an old community in Arizona. Through the recruitment of real estate developers, it will be upgraded in stages and become a distinctive old-age community. Specialized care for the elderly is its characteristic. The nurses here are all the highest-level registered nurses, just like a "guaranteed" elderly residential area of "hospital+sanatorium".
The rehabilitation and nursing facilities for the elderly here are perfect. In addition to several large-scale rehabilitation centers for the elderly, there are hundreds of medical clinics such as heart centers and eye centers all over the streets, as well as rows of nursing homes. The elderly can choose various grades of services according to their physical condition and economic affordability.
The occupancy rate of the terraced community for the aged has reached 92%, and many elderly people need higher-level care every month, and several high-level apartments have been built. The head of Arizona government said that in the increasingly scarce market, the development trend of pension real estate will focus on the upgrading of "mosaic" pension houses and old communities.
Third, the university village for the aged.
In recent years, the old-age real estate in the United States has begun to take an alternative trend, such as someone moving the old-age community into a university. The "baby boomers" born after the United States 1947 are generally highly educated. In view of this feature, more and more colleges and universities are involved in the development of pension real estate, which has set off an upsurge of "returning to their alma mater to provide for the elderly".
On the campus of the University of Pennsylvania, there is a retirement community called "University Senior Village" to recruit alumni from our school. At present, the average age of residents is 77 years old. Now, some communities can build "university villages for the elderly" by establishing cooperative relations with well-known universities around them, and provide lifelong learning programs by using university teaching facilities, so as to attract a large number of elderly people with high knowledge and culture and make them feel active and learn.
There are many types of "university elderly villages" in the United States, including active elderly villages, independent elderly villages, auxiliary elderly villages and professional nursing elderly villages. If the old man's health is between 55 and 65, he will enter the vigorous old-age village, and after 65, he can enter the assisted living old-age village. The village for the elderly living alone is mainly a family-style self-supporting way, which mainly includes accommodation, catering, entertainment and other functions.
The assisted living elderly villages and professional nursing elderly villages in universities are mainly aimed at the elderly over 75 years old, from which residents get three-level care, provide services needed at all stages, and provide continuous care services for residents. Nurses in the village need a nurse's card to take up their posts. According to the survey, the average life expectancy of the elderly living in the continuing nursing university village is 8 years higher than that of other communities in the United States, and the average medical expenses are reduced by 30%.
Fourth, hostels for the elderly.
In the United States, apartments for the elderly belong to the types of public rental housing and low-rent housing in pension real estate. In the past ten years, the development of pension real estate in cities and towns all over the United States has entered a mature stage, with various degrees and forms of development and various operating modes. For example, in new york, there are hundreds of apartments for the elderly, large and small, distributed in five administrative districts, such as Manhattan and Brooklyn, and there is an apartment for the elderly every three streets (according to domestic administrative terminology). Among them, there are municipal government investment, district government fund-raising, street joint venture, non-profit organization private placement, developer consortium and so on. For example, Clinton Garden, located at 54th Street, Columbus Avenue, a prime location in Manhattan, is an apartment for the elderly built with the assistance of the United States Coalition government.
Hamara Frias, the person in charge, said that Clinton Garden Senior Apartment has 100 rooms. According to Article 202 of the Federal Housing Regulations, apartments for the elderly accept applications from elderly people over 62 with annual income less than 25 100 (couples) and new york with annual income less than 22,000 (singles). After moving in, the monthly rent will account for 1/3 of the tenant's monthly income. For example, a retired person's social security fund is $750 a month, and living here is about $250 a month. If all $750 is given to the apartment for the elderly, the apartment for the elderly will not only provide three meals, but also organize activities such as traveling and watching plays.
Another example is George Garden Apartment in Steinlen Island, new york, which belongs to the new york non-profit organization Pension Real Estate Foundation. The foundation has developed nine apartments for the elderly. George Garden is a large apartment for the elderly, with six or seven buildings, lawns and gardens in the middle and around. There are thousands of square meters of elderly centers at the entrance of George Garden. The center for the elderly includes a restaurant, a reading room, a billiards room, a gym and so on. Besides providing breakfast and lunch, the center also offers aerobics classes, singing classes, pottery classes, painting classes, dance classes and Tai Ji Chuan classes. Anyone over 60 years old in the apartment, rich or poor, can come and enjoy brunch for one to two dollars. Nearly a thousand elderly people live in the park, forming a humanized old-age service community.
