About independent living in Virginia

Independent living communities offer maintenance-free homes for active older adults who don’t need daily care. Residents have their own apartment or cottage, plus dining, social activities, fitness programs and transportation, without the upkeep of a house.

Independent living is usually less expensive than assisted living because daily personal care isn’t included. Monthly fees typically cover rent, some meals, housekeeping and activities. Ask each community exactly what is included.
