What to Consider About Assisted Living in Greendale
Located southwest of Milwaukee, the village of Greendale, Wisconsin, was named a National Historic Landmark in 2012 for its role as a government-sponsored greenbelt community during the Great Depression. This successful model of a planned community is now home to over 14,000 residents, with seniors aged 65 and older making up around 23% of the population.
In the state of Wisconsin, including Greendale, community-based residential facilities (CBRFs), residential care apartment complexes (RCACs), adult family homes and adult day care are all considered types of assisted living facilities and are licensed by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services. There are two of these communities available in Greendale and another 48 in the surrounding areas.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Greendale
- The Milwaukee County Transit System (MCTS) makes it easy for seniors to get around Greendale with a number of fixed route services. MCTS offers a New Freedom program dedicated to providing seniors with tools and resources to help them use the service safely and independently.
