For active adults, snowbirds, and downsizers, Tradition in Port St. Lucie has become one of the most sought-after spots on Florida's Treasure Coast — and its flagship 55+ community, Del Webb at Tradition, is a big reason why. It pairs resort-style amenities and an easy, low-maintenance lifestyle with something many active-adult communities can't offer: a world-class hospital right in the community.
Here's what makes 55+ living in Tradition so appealing, what to know about Del Webb and other active-adult options, and how to decide if it's right for your next chapter.
Why Active Adults Choose Tradition
- World-class health care on-site. The Cleveland Clinic Tradition Hospital means leading medical care is minutes from your door — a top priority for many buyers over 55.
- Low-maintenance living. Many Tradition communities bundle lawn care and more through the master association, so you spend weekends enjoying life, not maintaining a yard.
- Walkable amenities & social life. The Town Center, farmers market, amphitheater, and events calendar make it easy to stay connected. The free electric TIM shuttle even takes you there.
- Treasure Coast location. Quieter and more affordable than South Florida's coast, but still an easy drive to beaches, dining, and airports.
Del Webb at Tradition
Del Webb at Tradition is a highly popular 55-plus active adult community known for its massive clubhouse, resort-style pools, and sports courts. Del Webb communities are built around an active, amenity-rich lifestyle — fitness, clubs, pickleball and tennis, social events, and a dedicated lifestyle director keeping the calendar full. For many buyers, it's the total package: newer, right-sized homes plus a built-in community of neighbors.
Other 55+ & Active-Adult Options
Del Webb isn't the only choice. Telaro at Tradition (by Mattamy Homes) is a newer active-adult enclave, and several all-ages Tradition neighborhoods appeal to active adults who don't want an age-restricted community. If you'd like to weigh age-restricted versus all-ages, our Tradition neighborhoods guide breaks down the full lineup.

What to Know Before You Buy in a 55+ Community
- Fees & what's included. Active-adult communities carry HOA (and sometimes CDD) fees that fund the amenities and often maintenance. Get the full picture of monthly costs and exactly what's covered.
- Age restrictions. Confirm the community's 55+ occupancy rules if visiting family or a younger spouse is a consideration.
- Resale vs. new construction. Builders may offer incentives on new homes; resales may offer completed landscaping, upgrades, and a faster move-in. Each has trade-offs.
- Lock-and-leave. For snowbirds, low-maintenance homes and community security make it easy to travel — a big plus.
