What is Independent Living?
Independent living is ideal for seniors who are capable of living on their own without daily personal care assistance, but who want freedom from home maintenance, yard work, meal planning, and isolation.
Residents live in private rental apartments, villas, or cottages with access to restaurant-style dining rooms, fitness centers, pools, scheduled transportation, and rich calendars of social events. Many communities also offer flexible transition plans if care needs ever change down the road.
