Best In 55+ Real Estate™

🏆 Ranked #1 Fastest-Appreciating 55+ County — ALEX Intelligence, 2026. The top 55+ housing markets aren’t where you’d expect. Pacific County leads the nation with 89.4% home value appreciation over five years, followed by Greene, Citrus, and Llano counties — all remote, low-density, and geographically distinct. These aren’t just retirement hubs; they’re emerging blue oceans for active-adult real estate. The driver? Scarcity of land combined with rising demand for accessible, single-level living in places with strong community identity. This data, from ALEX Intelligence’s new report, shows that the next wave of value isn’t in the familiar — it’s in overlooked, high-barrier-to-entry counties. What does this mean for downsizing, equity release, and long-term planning? https://alex-companies.com/data/2026-09-16-fifty-five-plus-fifty-five-plus-g-home-value-county-us-senior Fastest-Appreciating Counties Among Retirees' Choices (ALEX Intelligence — 2026) #1 Pacific County <- this market #2 Greene County #3 Citrus County #4 Llano County #5 Nye County #6 Kerr County #7 Gilmer County #8 Mohave County #9 Highlands County #10 Marion County Source: https://alex-companies.com/data/2026-09-16-fifty-five-plus-fifty-five-plus-g-home-value-county-us-senior View and join any or all of our communities — AI, quantum, and real estate: https://alex-companies.com/reports/linkedin-groups If there's an AI, quantum, or real estate community you'd like to see us convene, tell us — this portfolio grows by request.
