Activities and amenities at gated, 55-plus community in eastern San Jose
The Villages is a 55-plus community on the eastern edge of San Jose. This neighborhood offers its 4,000 residents an active lifestyle centered around a private golf course. All homeowners are members of the Villages Golf and Country Club and a designated HOA. Between its athletic facilities and community centers, residents have a steady supply of entertainment, ranging from musical performances to exercise classes. Both indoor and outdoor activities are available, though the weather lends itself to outdoor recreation. “When relocating here, there’s nothing you really need to prepare for, except for that it doesn’t rain all summer long,” says Michelle Elliott, Coldwell Banker Realtor and longtime San Jose resident. “It’s very dry, but not too hot – about 72 degrees.” The gated front entrance welcomes residents and guests and ensures 24-hour security. The neighborhood’s overall CAP Index crime score is 1 out of 10, significantly lower than the national average of 4.
Residents of the villages community are protected by 24-hour security.
The Villages community is a great place to live for the 55 and older residents.

Golfing, swimming and playing tennis in private community
The private driving range, 18-hole course and 9-hole course at the Villages Golf & Country Club are dotted with tall, leafy trees. Round picnic tables with umbrellas can be found at Gazebo Park, and residents also have access to four swimming pools, six tennis courts and two bocce courts. Hundreds of acres of open space surround The Villages; hikers can walk down Valle Vista Road for a shaded stroll behind the neighborhood. However, year-round particle pollution and occasional wildfire smoke affect air quality in the region. The Villages is located next to a fire station and Canyon Creek Park, which has paved walking paths, park benches and picnic tables.

Outside the neighborhood, locals can join faith communities at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or St. Francis of Assisi Church.
