What to Consider About Assisted Living in Canton

Located midway between Detroit and Ann Arbor, Canton is a dynamic, diverse community that offers easy access to both of those larger cities. Canton is also home to a growing number of retirees who can choose to take advantage of its cutting-edge community center, premiere performance venue and plentiful parks. According to the 2010 census, residents 55 years of age and older make up roughly a quarter of the area's population. Those seniors seeking an assisted living center in Canton can select from 48 different facilities available in the area. Five of these are in Canton’s city limits, while 43 more can be found in surrounding communities such as Westland, Plymouth and Livonia.

In Canton and across Michigan, assisted living facilities are officially called Homes for the Aged (HFA). They are licensed by the Bureau of Children and Adult Licensing, Department of Human Services.
