Housing for Older Persons (HOPA) exemptions allow communities designated as '55 and older' or '62 and older' housing to exclude children. The 55+ exemption requires at least 80% of units to be occupied by at least one person 55 or older and must publish and follow policies demonstrating intent to be age 55+ housing.
