For seniors, retirement isn’t just about downsizing—it’s about choosing a lifestyle that supports health, wellness, and community. Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) active adult communities are designed with these priorities in mind, combining access to top-rated healthcare with amenities that keep residents active, engaged, and connected.


World-Class Healthcare Nearby

Dallas-Fort Worth is home to some of the nation’s best hospitals and senior care facilities. Many active adult communities are built within minutes of major medical centers.

  • UT Southwestern Medical Center – Ranked nationally for specialties including geriatrics.

  • Baylor Scott & White Health – A wide hospital network across DFW.

  • Texas Health Resources – Multiple hospitals with senior-focused care.

  • Medical City Healthcare – Known for cardiac and orthopedic excellence.

Living in a 55+ community often means being less than 20 minutes away from urgent care, specialists, and wellness providers.


Lifestyle Benefits Within the Community

Active adult neighborhoods focus on making life healthy and enjoyable.

  • Fitness Facilities: Gyms, yoga studios, and swimming pools encourage year-round wellness.

  • Walking and Biking Trails: Promote daily activity while enjoying nature.

  • Social Clubs: Book clubs, dance groups, and travel clubs help seniors stay connected.

  • Wellness Programs: Some communities host nutrition classes, health screenings, or group fitness events.


Balanced Living

  • Low Maintenance Homes: HOA-managed lawns and exterior upkeep allow seniors to focus on their health and hobbies.

  • Safe Environments: Gated entries and age-focused designs reduce stress.

  • Resort-Style Amenities: Tennis, pickleball, and golf keep retirement exciting.


Key Statistics

  • Seniors in 55+ communities report a 25% increase in physical activity compared to peers in traditional neighborhoods.

  • DFW ranks among the top 10 metro areas in the U.S. for healthcare access.

  • Over 60% of seniors in active adult neighborhoods say their social engagement improved after moving.
