Aiming_4_55
Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I read thru this old thread, but wanted recent experience or feedback.

Well, DW and I are going to tour the Laguna Woods Village and Leisure World (Seal Beach, CA) 55+ communities in the near future. Anyone move-in (buy or rent) in the last few years or considering so in the near future? Any pros and cons to share?
It's appealing for various reasons, i.e. cost, safe community, activities, location, etc. along with the personal preferences that may not be appealing. LWV appeals more as it allows rental in the event we decide to move out or expire. However, LW is appealing as it advertises a community woodshop.
Even though I've targeted age 55 to retire, FI for a few years now, I 'm coasting for a few more years until I know what my kids end up doing. (Yes, I know the kids would not be allowed to live in the communities).
