55+ communities in West Palm Beach, Florida

Active adult and age-restricted communities in West Palm Beach, what they cost, and how they compare against west Boynton Beach.

The West Palm Beach 55+ market

West Palm Beach gives you genuine city amenities alongside 55+ living: the Kravis Center, Clematis Street, CityPlace, the waterfront, and Palm Beach International Airport close enough that visiting family is straightforward. For buyers who fly often or who want culture within a short drive, that combination is hard to match further south.

Baywinds is the community that comes up most often, with both single-family homes and villas. There is also substantial active adult condominium inventory across the city at price points well below the west Boynton single-family market.

The trade against Boynton and Delray is the clubhouse. West Palm 55+ communities are generally smaller and less amenity-heavy than the big GL Homes properties. If the resort clubhouse is the point of the move, look south. If the city is the point, look here.

How West Palm Beach compares against Boynton Beach

Boynton Beach holds the largest concentration of guard-gated 55+ single-family inventory in Palm Beach County, with nine Valencia communities alone. Before you settle on West Palm Beach, it is worth understanding what the same money buys fifteen minutes away.

What to check before you commit, anywhere

The community's current association budget, the most recent reserve study, and twelve months of board minutes. The monthly fee tells you very little on its own. The reserve position tells you whether a special assessment is coming. I pull and read all three for every client.

    Zillow 5 Star Review  Valentines Day is almost here. Hearts and flowers cannot convey the gratitude we feel to realtor extraordinaire, Harvey Dubov of Keller Williams. Harvey simultaneously orchestrated the sale of our former home and the purchase of our dream house. There is no better advocate than Harvey Dubov to get you to the right place at the right price! Harvey is the South Florida Dynamo!Paulette, Wolf, and their Pack

  • Zillow 5 Star Review  Harvey is a very experienced real estate professional and we highly recommend him if you need to sell your home. Harvey was very responsive to concerns and was in constant communication with us. He also helped us find vendors to correct some issues. Although we priced our property at a high number based on the current market, and we had to change the price based on the changing market, Harvey achieved getting us our asking price. He was great to work with, especially in a buyers market.

    Zillow 5 Star Review  Harvey expertly knows how to sell homes in the Valencias and other gated communities in Palm Beach County. He has the right touch with potential buyers and knows how to make the deal happen. He sold our home within about a month of listing. Every potential buyer was real. Harvey advised how we should prep the home for showings and it worked. He is clearly the most professional and talented broker working with the Valencia communities.

    Zillow 5 Star Review  My wife & I have moved 7 times in the last 27 years due to transfers in my job. Obviously, we've dealt with many realtors both on the buying and selling side. I have to say that Harvey is by far the BEST realtor we have ever worked with. His extensive experience, pleasant personality, professionalism and deep knowledge of his trade were instrumental in closing our deal at a time when we most needed it! If you are buying or selling a home in Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach or surrounding area, do yourselves a favor and hire Harvey Dubov!!Prodip and Denise Chaudhury

  • Zillow 5 Star Review  Harvey is amazing. Although he is the realtor, he listened to what I expected from my home. To others it may have been just a house, but it was my home for 36 years. He understood, and treated it as if it was his own! Harvey went above and beyond to sell my house quickly, and still got my asking price. He kept me in the loop every step of the way! There is no better than Harvey Dubov.
