Upon retiring, many seniors decide to sell their homes and relocate to a different type of living arrangement. Independent living encompasses a variety of settings, including standalone homes in planned communities and apartment complexes with shared living spaces.
Residents of independent living communities pay a monthly fee that includes landscaping, home repairs, and in some cases, housekeeping and planned social activities. Many communities also offer facilitated transitions to assisted living if residents experience a sudden decline in their health.
Before moving into an independent living arrangement, retirees must consider their health needs and financial situation. On-site health care is generally not provided and monthly fees may not be suitable to all retirees.
