What to know
Medley is the 55-plus neighborhood within Mirada; the rest of Mirada is not entirely age restricted. It offers a dedicated active-adult setting and the Medley Club while keeping residents close to the larger lagoon community. It is best suited to buyers who want both a social 55-plus lifestyle and Mirada's broader amenities.
How Medley is different from the rest of Mirada
Lennar describes Mirada Active Adult as a 55-plus collection with access to the Medley Club, including fitness, social programming and food-and-beverage space. The larger Mirada community also centers the lagoon, paths and neighborhood amenities.
The biggest difference is the lifestyle. Medley gives you an age-qualified neighborhood and a built-in social setting inside the larger, mixed-generation Mirada community.
Who is most likely to enjoy Medley?
- Strong fit
- Buyers who want organized social activities, a 55-plus peer group and home choices that can support lower-maintenance or single-level living.
- Compare carefully
- Seasonal owners, households with younger permanent occupants, frequent long-term family guests or buyers who may not use the club enough to value it.
- Broader Mirada
- If you want Mirada's lagoon lifestyle without a 55-plus neighborhood, compare the non-age-restricted homes, villas and townhomes.
What 55-plus does and does not mean
The 55-plus label does not necessarily mean every owner or occupant must be 55. Federal law sets the broader rules, while Medley's documents explain how they apply here. The HUD guidance explains the federal requirements. Ask for Medley's current policy before assuming who can live in the home.
Ask who must be 55 or older, whether younger adults may reside permanently, what documentation is required, and how guests or inherited ownership are handled. Get the answer in writing if younger household members may live with you.
Questions to ask before choosing Medley
- Obtain the current age-qualification and occupancy policy.
- Separate Medley association or club charges from Mirada CDD and other obligations.
- Confirm exterior maintenance responsibilities for the selected product.
- Review the current Medley Club access, guest and event policies.
- Ask which larger Mirada amenities are included and which activities cost extra.
- Compare resale restrictions, leasing rules and approval procedures.
- Visit during an actual programmed event and during an ordinary weekday.
