A suburb of Memphis, Collierville keeps seniors close to big-city amenities and medical care while offering a small-town feel. Antebellum architecture highlights the historic town square and main street areas. The senior population accounts for 14.4% of the city’s 51,000 residents. With Baptist Memorial Hospital-Collierville in town, those older adults can easily access a range of health care services quickly. Seniors also benefit from low crime rates, good air quality and mild winters.
When living at home is no longer safe, older adults have several options for senior living, including assisted living facilities. These residential programs provide a safe environment that’s easy to navigate as mobility decreases. Seniors get help with daily care tasks, housekeeping and cooking, with meals and several services provided. Many communities include extra amenities and activities to create an engaging, maintenance-free lifestyle. In Collierville, assisted living costs are typically around $4,200 per month, which is lower than the national average but slightly above the state average.
This guide helps seniors understand the costs and benefits of assisted living in Collierville compared to other areas. Seniors also learn about available resources that can help with the costs and provide additional support.
