1. A recessed LED lighting fixture configured for installation in a ceiling in an installed position, the recessed LED lighting fixture comprising: a housing assembly having an opening in a bottom face thereof, the opening communicating with a recess of the housing assembly;a LED light source positioned within the recess of the housing assembly and mounted to an interior mounting surface of the recess such that it emits light through the opening of the housing assembly;a power supply mounted to the housing assembly below the LED light source in the installed position. 2. The recessed LED lighting fixture of claim 1, wherein the housing assembly comprises a housing body and a removable housing cover. 3. The recessed LED lighting fixture of claim 1, wherein the housing assembly comprises a housing body and wherein the mounting surface is provided by a dividing wall of the housing body bounding the recess, and wherein a aperture is formed in the dividing wall for routing electrical lead wires to the LED light source. 4. The recessed LED lighting fixture of claim 3, wherein the housing body includes a trim ring extending radially outward adjacent a lower most extent of the housing body, the trim ring including defining an upper surface and a lower surface, the power supply mounted to the upper surface. 5. A recessed LED lighting fixture, comprising: a generally cylindrical housing assembly having an opening in a bottom face thereof, the opening communicating with a recess of the housing assembly;a LED light source positioned within the recess of the housing assembly such that it emits light through the opening of the housing assembly;a power supply mounted to an exterior of the housing assembly upon a trim ring thereof such that it is radially outside of the recess and axially interposed between the opening and the LED light source along a longitudinal axis of the housing assembly. 6. The recessed LED lighting fixture of claim 5, wherein the housing assembly recess is divided, by a dividing wall, into an upper cavity and a lower cavity, wherein the LED light source is mounted to the dividing wall within the lower cavity. 7. The recessed LED lighting fixture of claim 6, wherein housing assembly includes a housing cover and a housing body, the housing body defining the upper and lower cavities, the housing cover capping the upper cavity and including an arm which extends axially along a length of the housing body and encloses a channel between the housing body and the arm. 8. A method for retrofitting a structure with a recessed LED lighting fixture, the method comprising the steps of: removing an existing recessed lighting fixture from an opening in a ceiling; andinstalling a recessed LED lighting fixture into the opening of the ceiling, the recessed LED lighting fixture comprising a housing assembly having an opening in a bottom face thereof, the opening communicating with a recess of the housing assembly, wherein a LED light source is positioned within the recess of the housing assembly such that it emits light through the opening of the housing assembly, and wherein a power supply is mounted to the housing assembly below the LED light source such that it is axially interposed between the opening and the LED light source in the installed position. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the step of installing includes flush mounting a trim ring of the housing assembly with a mounting surface, wherein the power supply is mounted to an upper surface of the trim ring and is radially outside of the recess of the housing assembly. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the step of flush mounting the trim ring includes flush mounting a portion of an upper surface thereof such that the power supply at least partially extends into the opening in the ceiling.
