I love the sarcasm, truly, but that doesn't actually accomplish the goal. If the goal is to live near a group of similar aged folks, all buying a single-family home does is separate the walls a bit. You are now locked into a neighborhood in which your neighbors can easily have children who will run around screaming in the area, often ignoring who's yard belongs to whom. Source: Bought a house before, neighbors moved in with 4 kids who ran around screaming loudly and ignored that my yard wasn't theirs to play in. They also had 2 rather large labs that barked loudly day and night. Working from home with that sort of constant noise pollution is super irritating.
