Best In 55+ Real Estate™

🏆 Ranked #1 in 55+ Household Income Growth — ALEX Intelligence, 2026. The fastest-growing 55+ income market in America isn’t in a Sun Belt boomtown — it’s Dukes County, where 5-year household income growth hit 75.2%. This isn’t about migration or new construction; it’s about asset appreciation among long-term residents. The data from ALEX Intelligence shows that wealth in the 55+ population is increasingly concentrated, not spread. For active-adult and age-restricted communities, this means the most financially resilient markets may be the least visible ones — remote, low-growth counties with entrenched equity. This trend raises urgent questions: how do we ensure equitable access to equity release for seniors without assets? How do we design communities that serve both the wealthy and the vulnerable in a system where wealth is no longer tied to location?
