Talk to a Specialist →Independence’s $433/month HOA is the highest of any major Millsboro 55+ community. Before evaluating it against a lower-fee competitor, it is worth knowing what that fee specifically covers — because this is a genuinely all-inclusive model, not a standard HOA with a high fee.
Included in the $433/month: lawn mowing, trimming, fertilization, irrigation maintenance, snow removal, trash collection, all common area maintenance, unlimited access to the 24,000 sq ft Independence Hall (indoor pool, outdoor pool, fitness center, yoga studio, saunas, massage room, bar and grill, grand ballroom, library, billiards, pickleball and tennis courts), all social activities programming, community garden, dog park, and walking trails. Administrative fees, insurance, legal, and utilities for common facilities are also included.
