Independent living communities are perfect for seniors who can complete daily tasks, such as getting ready, without assistance. This type of senior living community is suited for residents who are able to live independently while taking advantage of the convenient benefits of living in a retirement neighborhood. Assisted living communities are designed for seniors who need additional support from staff members when going about their day. Seniors within this program maintain a sense of independence and enjoy the community benefits as they receive the assistance they need.

How can I pay for independent living?

Some of the common ways people pay for independent living include selling their home or drawing from retirement savings. In terms of value, independent living can lower monthly expenses while improving quality of life.

Are independent living residents allowed to bring their own furniture and belongings?
