What to Consider About Assisted Living in Armada
Armada is a small Michigan village that was first mapped in the 1820s by federal surveyors. In the 1830s, European settlers flocked to the area in search of rich farming land. While the village experienced rapid growth, many of its structures were destroyed in a fire in 1899. It eventually rebuilt and is now home to over 5,500 residents, about 18% of whom are seniors.
Retirees who are looking for assisted living will find two facilities in Armada and another seven facilities nearby. These facilities are officially called homes for the aged and are governed by the Department of Health and Human Services.

- While ozone pollution levels in the Armada region are very high, the American Lung Association reports relatively low short-term particle pollution levels. This may benefit seniors with respiratory or cardiovascular conditions.
- Taxpayers age 65 and over can deduct a large portion of their retirement income, including pension income and withdrawals from retirement savings accounts.
