Las Cruces 55+ Communities
Las Cruces, New Mexico has frequently been named as one of the Top Places to Retire in various publications. With its vibrant art community, award-winning Golf Courses, cost of living, temperate southwest environment, and beautiful mountain views, Las Cruces has become a desirable destination for retirees and snowbirds alike.
There are three 55+ Home Communities in Las Cruces:
- The Boulders
- The Boulders on the Green
- Tayvis Estates
All three of the 55+ Communities in Las Cruces reside either within or adjacent to the popular Sonoma Ranch area of Las Cruces and offer single family residences. With about 220 homes combined in the three Las Cruces 55+ Communities, availability of homes for sale is limited. At any given time, one can expect to see 0-5 homes available in total across the three communities. Currently available 55+ Community homes are shown below.
Due to the minimal amount of 55+ Community homes on the market for sale, a section titled Gated Community Home Options has been added below. The homes in this section are located within gated communities in the same area as the 55+ communities, but are not in designated 55+ communities. Homes in this section may be good options for home Buyers.
