Senior independent living options in Western CT - suggestions? Looking for an ideal environment for independent living for my mother, an elderly person and more. Rental type communities preferred.
I have no firsthand knowledge of one of the options in your area, I live in Florida. Fortunately, some of your colleagues, friends or acquaintances will tell you the places to avoid and the places they recommended.
You can also try calling your local network of the Agency on Aging, call 2-1-1, the online Help United Way, to get contact information.
Here are some links to other resources to find a place to live for seniors in Connecticut:
