Independent Living
According to Forbes Health, Independent living refers to a wide range of residential options that afford older adults the opportunity to live on their own while taking advantage of various amenities and community offerings. Independent living residential options are usually designed and arranged specifically for older adults, and the type of housing they provide—from apartments to townhomes to single family homes— can vary.
