Brampton Active Adult Lifestyle Communities

Active adult 55+ lifestyle communities in Brampton are ideal for independent older adults who want to enjoy a vibrant and social lifestyle without the burden of home maintenance. These communities are not care-based—they’re designed for healthy, mobile adults aged 55 and older who are looking to right-size their home, connect with like-minded neighbours, and enjoy age-friendly amenities.

Sometimes called adult lifestyle communities, these neighbourhoods offer a mix of private homes, shared recreational spaces, and organized activities that promote wellness and engagement.

They are most commonly located on the outskirts of larger cities or in suburban areas where there’s enough space to build amenities like clubhouses, walking trails, and golf courses. It’s rare to find full-scale active adult communities in the heart of a congested urban area.

What is an active adult lifestyle community?
It’s a housing development for individuals aged 55 and older who want to live independently in a community with shared amenities and social opportunities. These settings are not retirement homes and do not include healthcare or personal support services.

How are these communities different from retirement homes?
Retirement homes offer meals, personal care, and support services. Active adult communities are for fully independent seniors who don’t need daily assistance.

What types of housing are available?
Options can include detached homes, townhomes, mid-rise condos, or apartments. Some properties are available to rent, while others are for purchase or offered under life lease or land lease arrangements.

Is there a monthly fee?
Yes, most communities charge a monthly fee that covers maintenance services, access to amenities, and community upkeep. Be sure to ask what’s included.
