[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.

Here’s an idea. When someone asks a question, you can answer it or be helpful. The person asking the question might learn something.

Name calling isn’t helpful.

Here’s what I’m asking:
Why do 70 year olds buy into neighborhoods with 4000 sq feet houses, large 2 acre lots. 
It’s not a TYPICAL retiree area…I lived in Williamsburg for a long time and it was highly desirable for retirees.

Do I mean that all 70 year olds want the same thing? Surely not!

I would think (and many of you are proving me wrong) that if your kids are grown, you’d want less house, less yard.

If you’re a retiree purchasing a large home in a neighborhood with young families, explain why to me so I can learn.[/quote]

I suspect that, like anything in life, it’s because it’s what they like.

I asked you above very politely if you could explain why you find it surprising that retirees would be interested in buying this house you’ve described. You didn’t really respond to that.

I’m very curious as to the answer to this question. I’ve had lots of people of various ages move into many different neighborhoods I’ve lived in over the years. I have to admit that I’ve never wondered why someone bought any  particular house in any particular neighborhood because of their age, so I’m wondering why you’re wondering about this.
