An independent living community is a residential community that provides senior citizens or other adults with the support and services needed to remain independent and age in place. It provides all of the amenities, services and support that someone needs to enjoy their independence. These services include laundry services, meals, social activities, medical assistance, and recreational activities. Living in an independent living community allows seniors to remain active, involved in the community, and healthy, while still having the freedom to pursue their individual lifestyle and interests.
