One southern city has become a boomer boomtown thanks to an influx of older Americans flocking to its age-restricted, bustling community.
Georgetown, Texas is officially the fastest-growing city in the country in part due to its wealthy 55-and-older community called Sun City Texas.
An analysis of Census Bureau data for cities with populations of at least 50,000 by The Wall Street Journal found Georgetown has now been the top city for population growth for three years in a row.
Georgetown grew 11 percent in 2023, 14 percent in 2022 and 11 percent in 2021. The median age in the boomer-rich city is 44 – and approximately 27 percent of its residents are 65 or older.
Driving the massive population growth are vivacious seniors who move to Sun City because of its lively social scene, which includes community theater, game nights, fitness classes, sports teams and so much more.
