What to Consider About Assisted Living in Annandale
In the 17th century, modern-day Annandale was the site of one of Northern Virginia’s largest tobacco plantations, Ravensworth. By 1830, the plantation owners had moved on, and Ravensworth was renamed “Annandale” after a village in Scotland. Today, the city is home to approximately 41,000 people, and 13.5% are seniors. To serve the area’s senior population, there are 44 assisted living facilities in the area, with two located inside city limits. Annandale’s assisted living facilities are licensed by the Virginia Department of Social Services.
