Picking a Retirement Community Based on Political Views

Why would I spend my life in my community with all the ties developed over my lifetime want to uproot and move to a strange new community just because I changed my occupation from active to retured?

If there are "communities" of uprooted people having to start all over again trying to establish relationships with other uprooted people all you can really share with them is how unhappy they are now.

Why leave friends and family for that?

Forget being isolated in "retirement communities" like they are leprosy colonies!
