accommodations and amenities designed specifically for older adults. May
offer subsidies, recreational activities but generally no assistive care.

A more compact, low maintenance residence often offering aging in
place features. Access to leisure and recreational activities and generally
no assistive care.
INDEPENDENT LIVING

A variation on the above in generally a more structured environment. Onsite
social and recreational activities and again limited access to assistive care.
