Random legalish thing that is bugging me ...
Okay, maybe some of you lawyer types can help me out with this, because it is slowly driving me nuts and people close to me are getting sick of hearing about it. I recently visited a retirement community to see some of my fiance's relatives, where I learned that the basic idea behind a retirement community is that families with children are not allowed to live in the neighborhood - it's forbidden in the community rules. I don't understand how that is legal, given my understanding of federal fair housing legislation. Are there special exemptions in certain areas, or what exactly is the deal? I know, I know, who really cares if there are communities especially for old people, leave them alone, right? But if that's legal, then I can just see all kinds of other things ... slippery slope kind of thing. It's bugging me.
