What to Consider About Assisted Living in Cudahy

Cudahy is a well-developed urban community in the larger South Milwaukee area, with a large retail area overlooking Lake Michigan. More than 18,000 people live in Cudahy, and over 18 percent are seniors aged 65 and over. At least 33 assisted living facilities operate in the Cudahy area for seniors who want to live as independently as they can, but who still need help with some daily activities.

These communities, like those in the rest of the state, are licensed through the Wisconsin Department of Health Services Bureau of Assisted Living Division of Quality Assurance.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Cudahy

Overnight lows in January average just 16 degrees, and winter sees roughly 47 inches of snow each year. This can be an issue for cold-sensitive seniors. Summers are generally mild, with daily highs averaging 80 degrees. Warm months see 34.5 inches of rain in Cudahy.
