What Is Rossmoor?
Rossmoor is a secure, elegant and unique adult community for the 55+ crowd. Rossmoor offers the diversity of an urban city and the relaxed atmosphere of a country club estate. Life in Rossmoor is as fast paced or sedate as you wish. There is plenty to do, if you want to do it, and it was originally intended as a place where you could do all the things you never had time to do before. While many residents are now retired or do volunteer work, the baby boomers are moving in, some still working full or part-time. There is no limit to what you can do once you’ve embarked upon a new life in Rossmoor
