Continued segregation of seniors from other age groups is an unfortunate trend. We as a society really need to look at connecting all ages groups. The most critical need is to connect our seniors with children. Both have a lot of time available and could share valuable connections. Seniors have all the wisdom,knowledge and history from the past. Children have the unique outlook on what our future will look like. More and more interaction between both ages groups nutures this healthy interaction. No mention in any of the senior communities of a connection to children is too bad!

5 Next Generation Retirement Communities??
Well, your list certainly makes sense, especially the Campus niche... with a lot of communities, close to universities, adding educational ammenities or life=long learning centers i.e. Patrick Square in Clemson, SC.
However, the Assisted RV Living niche is a bit of a stretch. Now, if one of the services was providing a driver/care-giver that would take the owners on short trips, you may be on to something.

more centers should focus on wheelchair residents for activities and comfort
