Midwest retirement communities may have some of the largest increases in retirement communities for active adults. The midwest states have large populations of baby boomers who wish to stay close to family but also want this type of active adult retirement community. With the current economic slowdown, builders have not developed new projects as rapidly as in the past several years.
