Rossmoor
Outstanding green location.
After renting for 3 months, it was a no-brainer to buy here. At first, I thought it was a bit expensive, but after looking elsewhere in the bay area, I realized a condo here was half the price of anywhere outside our gate.
With over 200 clubs of every imaginable sort, it was extremely easy to meet people who shared the same interests, values, age, and activity levels. There’s always something going on, and it is always voluntary. Choices include free movies, cultural events, sports, concerts, organized travel, educational workshops, and much more. A great place to meet people and keep active.
All of this in a beautifully landscaped valley in the heart of Walnut Creek 25 miles from San Francisco with medical facilities and shopping centers just outside the gate. Although I have traveled and lived all over the world, I now find that when I go on vacation, I look around and wish I were back in Rossmoor.
This is one great place to live. It is like an all inclusive resort. It is a diverse community with many activities. We know our neighbors and the people here are friendly. There are something for everyone to be active and involved. My favorites are tennis, pickleball, billiards, table tennis, golf, gym, theater, our fabulous event center, our Creekside restaurant. Even the wildlife loves it here!
The landscape is beautiful. Rossmoor fall colors and the golf course are magnificent. It is a gated community with it’s own security staff and there is a shopping mall and fire station just outside the entrance. I only wished that I had moved here earlier.
We have lived here two years and have found activities to keep us busy and happy with new friends. We came from the east coast to a beautiful community. It is a wonderful place that we hope to call home for a many years to come.
This is a beautiful community but the price to live here has been steadily going up. The upper range is now in the million dollar plus range. Also note that if you’re in the lower end of the age spectrum, this is a mature community, i.e. more residents in the 70+ range.
