READ MORECoon Rapids is a large suburb of Minneapolis known for its outdoor recreational attractions. It’s estimated that 63,599 people live in Coon Rapids, with 16.2% of them aged 65 and over. Affordable health care and a thriving downtown area with plenty of entertainment and shopping options make this town an excellent choice for seniors who want to enjoy a healthy lifestyle close to big-city amenities.
Assisted living facilities provide care to seniors who can remain active but need assistance with some of the tasks of daily living, such as personal care needs, cooking and transportation to appointments. Residing in an assisted living community is a good option for seniors who don’t need the round-the-clock medical care offered in a skilled nursing home but can no longer live an independent lifestyle. Seniors living in the Coon Rapids area pay an average of $4,797 per month to live in an assisted living community, nearly $500 less than the U.S. average.
This guide gives an overview of assisted living in the Coon Rapids area, average costs for care, resources available to support seniors and the pros and cons of living there.
