For families considering options for senior living, North Carolina is often at the top of the list — and for good reason.
Whether you prefer laid-back beach towns, mountain hikes, or something in between, North Carolina has something to offer — and that’s what makes it an ideal retirement destination. The Outer Banks region along the state’s eastern coast is a popular tourist spot, featuring lighthouses, beaches, and countless other aquatic activities. It’s also home to Kitty Hawk, the seaside town where the Wright brothers made their historic first airplane flight. Then, on North Carolina’s western edge is where the breathtaking Blue Ridge Mountains run through the state. Peppered throughout all of North Carolina are small yet vibrant college towns like Asheville and Chapel Hill, along with larger metropolitan areas like Charlotte. Add mild weather and low property taxes to the mix, and it’s clear why the Tar Heel State has one of the fastest-growing populations in the United States.
Currently, A Place for Mom partners with more than 150 independent living communities, sometimes simply called retirement communities, in North Carolina.
The median monthly cost of independent living in North Carolina is about $2,600.
Independent Living
I would suggest you check other places out. The nursing care isn't the best. The community is on the expensive side. There are activities going on at different times for the residents. There are physical activates such as exercises and we have an activities director on site.
Read moreThe staff tries their best to make the residents feel at home. The community is neat and clean and the staff is very friendly I would recommend this community to others based on my experience.
Read moreMy fathers health isn't doing the best, but he does like this community. He is perfectly content, and they are taking good care of him, and his needs. He is pleased with the meals, they provide wonderful food. There was a mix up on his medicine, but they have straightened than out now. I'am hoping the new medicine will help his health improve. It is a pretty clean community for the most part, we have had minor concerns with the cleanliness. However they have been good at helping him keep his apartment clean. It is still a work in progress, but this is a community I would recommend.
