What to Consider About Assisted Living in Kendallville

Kendallville is home to nearly 9,900 residents and is about a 40-minute drive north of Fort Wayne, Indiana. History-loving seniors appreciate the downtown district with 45 buildings developed between 1863 and 1940. The architecturally diverse downtown area was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003. The quaint shops, eateries and historic movie theater make this town a charming choice for older adults, who comprise about 16.4% of Kendallville’s population.

To accommodate this large group of seniors over age 65, Kendallville offers two assisted living facilities that provide support with the activities of daily living while promoting independence. Nearby Avilla has another two communities. The Indiana State Department of Health (ISDH), Division of Long-Term Care licenses and regulates the ALFs in Kendallville and the rest of the state.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Kendallville
