READ MOREGrand Haven is a coastal community of about 11,000 people, 23% of whom are seniors, in the southwestern region of Michigan. It’s a prime retirement option for older adults seeking affordability, access to health care and low crime rates. The city also has several outstanding assisted living facilities to support seniors who need a daily helping hand.
Assisted living is a practical long-term care solution for older adults who don’t require nursing home placement but are unable to safely live by themselves. It includes housing, often with apartment-style units, daily meals and recreational activities, along with personalized care plans. Facilities often have indoor and outdoor common areas, such as activity centers, courtyards and fitness centers, to support socialization and active lifestyles, and many allow residents to keep pets. On average, seniors in Grand Haven pay $4,828 per month for this level of care, which is a little higher than the respective state and national rates of $4,250 and $4,500.
Through this comprehensive guide to assisted living in Grand Haven, readers can learn more about how local care costs compare to alternatives within the city and nearby. The guide also features details on ways to pay for services.
