It's hard to make friends in Palm Springs because, in my 50s, I'm one of the younger residents. Many retirees move here.

• I moved to Palm Springs from Silicon Valley in my 50s for a change of pace. 
• Though I like it here, many people are already retired, and I've had a hard time making friends. 
• Some early friendships fizzled out, but I'm not giving up on meeting new people.

I'm in my 50s and live in a community in Palm Springs of mostly retired people. As one of the youngest people here, it's hard to find friends.
