The southernmost state in New England, Connecticut is a popular retirement destination for seniors from the New York metropolitan area. Although it can be more expensive than many other states, Connecticut is a serene, picturesque escape from the big city — particularly during October, when fall colors are most vibrant. Known as the “Constitution State” for its nation-building contributions following the Revolutionary War, Connecticut is rich with historic Colonial landmarks in cities like Hartford and New London. The southern coastline along the Long Island Sound includes Hammonasset Beach State Park, as well as New Haven, the state’s second-largest city. Here you’ll find Yale University, the antique carousel at Lighthouse Point Park, and the famous New Haven-style thin crust pizza.
Currently, A Place for Mom partners with more than 125 senior living communities in Connecticut that provide assisted living.
The median monthly cost of assisted living in Connecticut is about $5,300.
Assisted Living
We chose Landing of Poughkeepsie because out of the ones we looked at, it was cleaner, they were more professional, and staff seemed better trained. The room sizes are great, she has a 1 bedroom and it is very comfortable. I would definitely recommend them, they have been very communicative about everything and it is all around just a great facility.
Read moreThe staff here really makes me at ease. They are tremendously helpful and caring to me and my loved one. My loved one is transitioning very well. The people always keep me informed about anything or any progression that my loved one has made. They also offer a lot of activities. The food is good, but if there is a meal that my loved one does not like the chef will make what my loved one wants.
Read moreThe times I have been there, the pace is clean and the staff are friendly. During the Covid-19 pandemic, they did a good job with keeping the residents safe. Overall, they are very good with keeping our family informed of my sisters care, which was important to us. They do seem to have a lot of activities available and my sister seems to enjoy them.
