For seniors considering community life but don’t require constant care, independent living communities can be a great option. They support those who have more active lifestyles and offer the opportunity for social engagement.
What is Independent Living?
Suppose you or a loved one are searching for a community that allows for complete independence with some of the same amenities as senior living facilities. In that case, this could be a perfect choice. Independent living communities traditionally offer a selection of either a studio, one-bedroom, or two-bedroom unfurnished apartment. Additional amenities may include:
Fitness Centers
Recreation Rooms
Pools
Theaters
Libraries
Gardens
Bistros
Outdoor Walking Paths
Services such as housekeeping, meal plans, transportation, utilities, maintenance, and more are covered. Extra personal care can also typically be purchased on an a la carte basis.
Who is Independent Living Right For?
Independent living communities are usually a good fit for those who can still maintain active lifestyles, whether they have a job, drive a vehicle, or commute regularly.
