Where To Retire Names Top 100

For the third consecutive time, SummerGlen has topped the list of the best places to retire in America by being chosen one of the 100 Best Master Planned Communities for 2009 by Where To Retire Magazine.

Every two years, Where To Retire selects the 100 master-planned communities in the US which it considers to offer the best in quality, value and lifestyle. SummerGlen was included in that prestigious list in 2005 and 2007. The 2009 list was announced in the July/August issue of the magazine.

According to Where To Retire, “during a nine-month selection process, our editors reviewed several hundred candidates across the country. Your community (SummerGlen) is among an elite group of developments that offer today’s retiree’s a well-rounded, active lifestyle.”

In this issue, Where To Retire quoted SummerGlen residents Rich and Connie DeStefanis, who lived in Vero Beach but didn’t find what they wanted for retirement there. “We were looking for a 55-plus community that offered a lot of activities and where we could have social interaction with a lot of people,” says Rich. “We liked the activities. The clubs have just about anything you want to do, and the people are very friendly. The builder was accommodating on changes to the home, which other places weren’t flexible.”

Be sure to check out the July/August 2009 issue of Where To Retire for the complete list of America’s 100 Best Master Planned Communities. The magazine is available on newstands and by subscription.

Where To Retire is probably the country’s most popular magazine aimed at seniors who are seeking the best in retirement living. SummerGlen is honored to have received this distinctive award as representing the very finest living that our country offers for active adults..
