Not all of them. Del Webb Wilmington at Mallory Creek and Mallory Creek are 55+ communities. Brunswick Forest, Compass Pointe, Terrapin, Magnolia Greens, Waterford, Trestle Ridge, Collingwood Cottages, Indigo Preserve and 1 more are age-targeted — built and marketed for active adults, but with no age requirement, so families can and do buy there.
