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.

Read moreIn the beginning the sales person was very friendly and helpful, and our loved one has a very very nice apartment. She definitely is enjoying the meals they are serving, and they are adding on more activities within the community. It is still a little restricted but they are now able to take the residents out to lunch. There was a little miss communication when moving our loved one in, due to the covid limitations we were not able to help our loved one really move in, so we thought they would of stepped up a little more to help out. However, our loved one would tell a new residents moving in that she is happey staying here for forever
