Regularly named one of the country’s most expensive areas, the Bay Area is notorious for its high real estate prices. It’s also well-known as an economic and entertainment hub, rife with job opportunities, a diverse population, and a thriving arts, food, and entertainment scene. These qualities make it a highly desirable area, along with other features such as a pleasant, mild climate and a wonderful location near the ocean, foothills, national parks, and beautiful lakes.
The Bay Area may be expensive as a whole, but active adults can still find some reasonably priced 55+ communities that are selling homes for $350k or under.
