Florida's Retirement Communities
Florida’s not only diverse in its many cultures. Florida’s regions offer different tastes of the Sunshine State. Whether you’re looking for small-town hospitality or metropolitan hustle, you can find it in Florida.
Northwest Florida
Powdered sugar sand and emerald waters line the shores of Florida’s Panhandle, known as the Emerald Coast. The region is unspoiled on the coast and inland, and close-knit communities bring metropolitan conveniences and lifestyle to residents’ fingertips. Fishing, boating, swimming, sunning and sailing are just a few of the popular activities in this region. The Northwest area boats a mild climate, beautiful beaches and woods, and intriguing history.
North Central Florida
North Central Florida is a region overflowing with beautiful rivers such as the famous Suwanee and many national and state forests. The region is a crossroads in the state where Interstates 10 and 75 connect. It is a quick trip to anywhere in the state. Communities in this region will appeal to those seeking a slower pace and small-town hospitality.
Northeast Florida
Like the rest of Northern Florida, the climate of this region is mild, slightly cooler in both winter and summer than some of the more southern communities the Sunshine State offers. Northeast Florida is home to metropolitan Jacksonville, historic St. Augustine and more relaxed communities including Green Cove Springs and Fernandina Beach. Recreation activities abound, including fishing and golfing—in fact World Golf Village is located between Jacksonville and St. Augustine.
Central West Florida
This sub-tropical region of the Sunshine State features famous beaches including St. Petersburg, Clearwater and Dunedin. The areas many estuaries provide ample opportunities for bird watching and fishing. For more hustle and bustle, Tampa’s cultural offerings including museums, parks and aquariums.
Central Florida
Most people think Disney, Universal and Seaworld when they think of Orlando and Central Florida, but there is much more to the region than theme parks. The area is filled with rolling hills and is the cradle of the state’s citrus industry. Golfing, hiking and freshwater fishing are among the most popular outdoor activities.
Central East Florida
This coastal region bridges the gap from the past to the future. From auto racing, kennel clubs and historic towns, to the space industry, Central East Florida offers its own unique charm. Daytona’s and New Smyrna’s speedways are sure to keep you moving along. The Space Coast ensures a great view for watching shuttle launches. Fishing along Sebastian River Inlet and golfing are prime activities.
Southwest Florida
This special region stands out as one of Florida’s truly lovely places. On winter days, manatees can be found in the many waterways. This region is home to Florida’s Everglades, America’s “Sweetest Town” Clewiston, and was the winter home for the Ringling Circus and Thomas Edison.
Southeast Florida
It doesn’t get any hotter than Southeast Florida. From Miami’s posh and exciting nightlife to the laid-back easy-going lifestyle of the Florida Keys, there is something for everyone. Fishing and golfing are year-round pastimes. For indoor fun, there are many museums and theaters.
