Active Adult Communities in North Carolina

Ask twenty smiling seniors what makes active adult communities in North Carolina the perfect choice for retirement, and chances are they won’t say they came just for the state’s famous Krispy Kremes. But some will definitely say it’s the 300 miles of gorgeous beaches, each with a different ambiance and many surrounded by quaint coastal towns. Others will tell you it’s all about hiking and skiing—and enjoying some of America’s best craft beer—in the Blue Ridge and Smoky Mountains. To others, senior living in North Carolina means four distinct weather seasons in which to participate in outdoor sports, and a total of 21 professional and minor league teams to enjoy as a spectator.
