What is "Aging in Place"?

Aging in place is the concept of living in one's own home and community safely, independently, and comfortably, regardless of age, income, or ability level. It allows seniors to maintain their quality of life and independence while choosing a living environment that works for their lifestyle and physical needs.

Available options for aging in place.


There are several options available for those looking to age in place, each with its unique benefits:


  1. Modifying Your Current Home: This option involves remodeling your existing home to include accessibility features such as grab bars, ramps, wider doorways, and stairlifts. While this can help you stay in a familiar environment, it often requires significant investment and time.
  2. Buying a New Home Designed for Aging in Place: Purchasing a home that is already equipped with aging in place features can be a more straightforward solution. These homes are designed with accessibility and safety in mind, including single-level living, no-step entries, and easy-to-navigate floor plans.
  3. 55+ Communities: These communities offer homes and amenities specifically designed for older adults. They provide a social environment, which can be beneficial for maintaining an active and engaged lifestyle.

Some things to consider about aging in place.


When deciding whether to modify your current home or move to a new one, there are several important factors to consider:


  1. Cost of Remodeling vs. Buying New: Remodeling your home can be costly, especially if significant modifications are needed. You may need to bring your home up to code when obtaining permits, which can add to the expense. In many cases, buying a new home designed for aging in place can be more cost-effective and less disruptive.
  2. Future Needs: Consider your long-term needs. While remodeling might address your current requirements, will it continue to serve you well as your needs change? A home specifically designed for aging in place might better accommodate future needs.
  3. Lifestyle and Community: Think about the lifestyle you want to maintain. If you value a social environment and access to community amenities, a 55+ community could be a great fit. If you prefer the familiarity of your current neighborhood, remodeling might be the way to go.
  4. Ease of Transition: Moving to a new home can be a significant change, but it may offer a better living environment in the long run. Weigh the short-term inconvenience against the potential long-term benefits.


Ensure your home is perfectly suited for aging in place with a home assessment.
