When people picture an ideal retirement scenario, Arizona is often what comes to mind. “The Grand Canyon State” has an abundance of warm, dry weather — which means anyone who suffers from seasonal allergies or asthma will find relief in Arizona’s desert climate — and its almost otherworldly natural landscapes provide countless opportunities for outdoor activities, exercise, and serenity. The trails throughout national parks like Saguaro and Petrified Forest capture the rugged mystique of the Southwest, and don’t worry, there’s no shortage of golf courses. Plus, considering the state doesn’t tax residents on social security income, it’s clear why so many Americans find peace of mind — and body — while retiring in Arizona.
Currently, A Place for Mom partners with more than 190 independent living communities in Arizona.
The median monthly cost of independent living in Arizona is about $2,300.

We chose Brookdale East Arbor because they were recommended to us by a previous facility. The food looks good and they are accommodating. They have plenty of activities available. She is handicap and they accommodate her very well. They have so many amenities offered such as a hair salon, nail salon, a pediatrist, dentist, doctors that come on site, etc. She is happy I would recommend that people check them out. They have been great with communication.
Read moreMy father-in-law was here till he passed and it was nice. They took good care of him, he couldn't walk so his needs were high. They would make sure he was clean and up out of his bed. They would take him outside. Took him to the dining room to feed him. They washed his clothes and just treated him like a real person. It is very homey here and the administration ladies were amazing. I would recommend them to other families.
Read moreThe staff is excellent and made sure they knew what we wanted. The room is perfect with a great view. Communication is very good between the staff and families but there is room for improvement. I would recommend this community to others. They are open to feedback and have addressed any issue that has come up.
