Independent Living Communities provide seniors with a nice harmony between living an independent lifestyle and not having to concern themselves with housekeeping. Frequent needs such as meal planning and housekeeping are accounted for, which permits residents more free time to live active lives as they wish. Along with their daily needs being met, residents can enjoy the opportunity to be among peers, surrounded by others of similar age groups and interests. Typically comprised of a private living area and a full kitchen, these communities offer homes with many of the amenities of apartment life but without the hassle. Guests can be invited over and entertained, and more time can be spent with them with the basic maintenance of daily tasks out of the way. While policies vary between communities, a number of residences allow pets as well. If medical or nursing assistance is desired, residents may always enlist the services of private care providers.
