An exception to Article 1 applies to housing intended and operated for occupancy by at least one person ____ years of age or older per unit.

• A. 30
• B. 55
• C. 60
• D. 18

Answer: (B)

An exception to Article 1 applies to housing that is intended and operated for occupancy by older adults, allowing such developments to exclude families with children if they meet certain age criteria. The per-unit age threshold used for this exemption is that at least one person per unit must be 55 years of age or older. That’s why 55 is the correct fill — it aligns with the standard age used to qualify housing as intended for older persons under the Fair Housing Act’s older-person exemption. The other ages don’t fit because they don’t reflect the specific 55+ criterion; (for reference, another separate exemption exists for housing designed for people 62 and older, but this item focuses on the 55+ threshold).
