Does a well off 70 year old, in good health, who wants to enjoy the city lifestyle and has money to burn, also want to share amenity space with perhaps, 90-95 years olds, perhaps not so much with it anymore mentally, nurses, wheel chairs, etc?
They do if they want to "age in place" (which is a big draw, these days). Also, I think these retirement communities tend to separate the assisted living facilities from those for folks who are still self-sufficient. They understand the mindset of the Baby Boomers to whom they are marketing (and on whom their future success depends).
