Grand Haven is a coastal community of about 11,000 people, 23% of whom are seniors, in the southwestern region of Michigan.

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.
