Senior living communities, also known as retirement communities or independent living communities, are designed for active seniors who desire a vibrant social environment and amenities like fitness centers, dining options, and recreational activities. These communities offer a maintenance-free lifestyle and opportunities for socialization, making them ideal for those who want to downsize and enjoy a community-focused lifestyle.

Aging-in-place refers to the concept of seniors living in their own homes safely and comfortably as they age. This option often involves making modifications to the home to enhance accessibility and safety, such as installing grab bars, ramps, and lever-handled faucets. Additionally, technology solutions like medical alert systems and smart home devices can further support independent living while ensuring assistance is readily available if needed.
