What to Consider About Assisted Living in Harleysville
Harleysville, a census-designated place in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, is a historically rich community that has roots dating back to the 18th century. Today, seniors can learn about the community's past by visiting the Mennonite Heritage Center, which offers a variety of programs, workshops and bus tours throughout the year.
Seniors comprise about 15 percent of the community's population. To support the senior population, Harleysville has two assisted living facilities, and there are another 54 nearby.
