What to Consider About Assisted Living in Thomasville
While Thomasville, North Carolina is renowned for its robust furniture industry, some seniors may know it as “Chair Town” thanks to the 30-foot landmark replica of a Duncan Phyfe armchair.

Seniors aged 65 and older comprise nearly 16% of Thomasville’s estimated population of 26,635. Those who need help with the activities of daily living find five assisted living facilities (ALFs) in Thomasville, with another nine in nearby High Point, Lexington and surrounding areas.
