Senior Independent Living Apartments

When it’s time for retirement or semi-retirement, active adults often prefer to downsize and transition to a senior apartment in an independent living community. 

If that is an option you are considering, you’ll be glad to know that most who do make the transition enjoy their accustomed independent standard of living without the burden of homeownership. That means no more lawn care, exterior maintenance or home repair, or the costs for taxes and upkeep. It also means living in a community where the opportunities to enjoy your best life are offered onsite, including signature programs and amenities, vibrant social community and enhanced peace of mind.

Those best suited to life in a senior independent living apartment are seniors who enjoy an active lifestyle and who prefer to live in a community of peers. Living in an independent living apartment means you’ll have the freedom to come and go as you wish and the peace of mind that comes with living in a secure community. If you want choices in how to live your retirement and the freedom to explore new opportunities, an independent living apartment could be a great choice for you.

Who Can Live in a Senior Apartment?

Seniors often have many questions about independent living. Independent living apartment communities are designed for those who are typically 55 years or older and who can manage their own activities of daily living, such as bathing, dressing and taking medications. Those considering independent living will learn this is an ideal move for active older adults who no longer want the responsibility of home maintenance, who enjoy living with other senior adults and who appreciate the amenities that are featured in these communities.

Unlike independent living, an assisted living community provides care for those who may require support with everyday activities, but who do not need the level of skilled care that is provided in a nursing home.
