The Best Communities in Alexandria, VA

With easy access to the nation’s capital and three first-rate hospitals, Alexandria makes a great location to savor retirement. More than 16,000 seniors call this historic city home, and many enjoy the compact downtown area known as Old Town. Bike-friendly Alexandria is also the halfway point on the Mount Vernon bike trail between D.C. and George Washington’s famous home. Seniors can easily reach Washington on Metro trains and pay half-price for rail and bus rides. The city’s seven senior center locations offer a wide range of activities, including the Northern Virginia Senior Olympics, and seniors receive discounts on the community’s recreation and parks programs. Alexandria’s proximity to Washington also gives residents an opportunity to visit nearby national museums and parks.

To help seniors discover the most senior-friendly locations around the country, Caring.com conducted a new study, “The Best and Worst Places for Senior Living.” The Caring Senior Living Report analyzes and ranks 300 cities and 50 states on the quality of senior living in that area. The cities were graded using 46 metrics across five categories: Health Care, Senior Living & Housing, Affordability, Quality of life, and Transportation.
