Hello,
There are approximately 6,200 independent living facilities nationwide
with approximately 723,300 units.
Independent Living.
?Independent living communities are age-restricted multifamily
properties that may have central dining facilities that provide
residents as part of their monthly fee with access to meals and other
services such as housekeeping, linen service, transportation, and
social and recreational activities. Independent living is designed for
seniors who choose to live in an environment surrounded by their
peers, but are generally not reliant on assistance with activities of
daily life, such as bathing, eating, toileting, transferring and
dressing; some residents, however, may contract with outside providers
for those services. Independent living residents tend to move into a
facility by choice, oftentimes to be in a metropolitan area that is
closer to their adult children. According to the American Senior
Housing Association, or AHSA, there are approximately 6,200
independent living facilities nationwide with approximately 723,300
units.?
