Introducing a comprehensive report on the wellbeing of Australia's retirees.
The Keyton Retirement Living Lifestyle Report is a biennial survey over 4,500 Australian adults aged over 55 years, who are retired or semi- retired (excluding those living in aged care and those with dependents under 18 living at home). This report provides us with a stronger understanding of the many things that contribute to a fulfilling life in retirement, including securing the future, overall wellbeing and confidence for the future. The data shows that:
• 59% of Aussie over-55s say they worry about the cost of living more now than they did in 2021. • More than half of retirees living in a retirement village are less likely to be concerned about the cost of living. • 30% of Aussie over-55s are still participating in some form of paid or volunteer work. • Aussie retirees living in a retirement village want to try new activities including online dating (9%) and outdoor adventure (25%).
In light of the current economic challenges, including elevated interest rates and heightened living expenses, 59% of those surveyed, particularly those retired, are more concerned about living costs than they were in 2021, with over half observing a more frugal approach to spending.
Interestingly, the majority (54%) of retirement village residents agree that the cost of entering a retirement village was lower than they originally expected, and almost half (44%) say they wish they’d moved in sooner. Furthermore, nearly a third of individuals surveyed continue to engage in the workforce, through either volunteer (18%) or paid roles (12%), with those residing in retirement villages being significantly more likely to volunteer (30%) compared to non-residents (17%).
Wellbeing is a reflection of how a person feels about themselves and their life that is strongly linked to happiness and life satisfaction.
But that's not all! Engagement in social activities like going to the local club or community centre, socialising, participating in team sports, exercise classes, and community discussion groups is significantly higher among retirement village residents compared to those living elsewhere, adding to their overall social wellbeing.
Retirement village life offers a safe haven, with 65% of residents feeling safer, 46% less isolated and 40% more supported than before moving into the village, suggesting that retirement villages may be beneficial to Australia's ageing population.
A spectacular 57% of Aussies aged 75 and over who are retired and those living in retirement villages rate their social connection levels as excellent or very good compared to other demographics.
Retirement village residents shine with enthusiasm for adventurous exploits, including a readiness for online dating (9%) and outdoor adventures (25%).
In the next two years, seniors are also looking forward to a spectacular range of interests, from joining new teams to starting small businesses, and even trying extreme sports!
Whether it’s choosing a retirement living community, pursuing hobbies and interests, or planning travel adventures, feeling confident in their decisions allows retirees to fully embrace and enjoy their new found freedom and leisure time.
Australian seniors are full of dreams beyond borders. With an unquenched yearning for travel and discovery, 54% dream of global exploration, 19% are keen to delve into Australia's unique beauty, and 18% look to new hobbies for excitement. Women lean slightly towards travel (58%), while men (19%) are slightly more inclined to try new hobbies.
"It's about enjoying ourselves, learning new skills, having fun and giving enjoyment to others."
Arthur Tucker has been playing guitar and bass in bands since 1960, and now he shares his passion for music with the whole village. His band Smith Avenue has become the Townsend Park’s exclusive house band with a set list of over 300 songs.
“We are happily revisiting our youth as are our fellow residents as they dance the night away,” says Arthur.
Apart from the rock band’s regular gigs, Arthur loves the village’s sense of community, friendships, safety, and security of living in Townsend Park.
Kate and Bert are social butterflies
“There’s everything you can think of, you name it, we’ve got it here!”
Kate and Bert have been married for more than 60 years and have three adult children together. Their kids wanted to know that their parents would be well looked after, so they fully embraced Kate and Bert’s decision to call Classic Residences their new home.
Social butterflies at heart, the couple has fully embraced the bustling community. Kate’s taken up pool and dabbles in craft and croquet, while Bert loves darts (and wine!) and plays each week.
Cruising through life's adventures
"It’s a fantastic community to live in with a thriving social life."
For John and Marion life is full of adventure. Independently they made the decision to move to Keyton’s Rochford Place. Both are super social and have enjoyed the community and social life with once a month dinners, Friday night raffles and exercise classes that bring a group together each week.
The couple met in the village in 2022 and tied the knot last June, finding love was an unexpected bonus of moving to a retirement village. To celebrate, they took a cruise to Port Douglas with 24 of their closest friends from the village, an adventure and celebration they say marked the beginning of their new life together.
