Is 55 the new 40 and 70 the new 50? We think so! We’re definitely getting better! “Retirement” age is sliding way past 65 and while some people choose to continue to work, others are re-inventing themselves, discovering new careers, and passions while enjoying all life has to offer. Today’s baby boomers are healthier, more fit, more active and more conscious of their mental acuity than any previous generation. Because of this, the old model of “retirement” is changing.
The Village at St. Elizabeth Mills offers the market activities that would never fly in the 50’s. Zoomers on skateboards as golf carts whiz past neighbours out for a jog. Glamorous couples at wineries, galleries, casinos. Active, active, active – that is the key to living with ZEST!

BENEFITS OF A ZEST COMMUNITY
There are lots of reasons why people choose to move out of their perfectly comfy homes and move into a ZEST community. The benefits of living in a ZEST community geared to 55+ living are many and varied. Here are a few reasons to make the move.
Easy, one floor living
Say goodbye to stairs! No more trekking up and down with painful knees and other challenges. Single floor living makes everything easier.
Lock and leave convenience
