Assisted Living Options in Seattle

Seattle: Seaport City Serenity and Activities

Surrounded by the sea, rivers, forests, lakes, and fields, Seattle, Washington ranks as one of the most beautiful cities in the United States. That’s just one reason to choose the area to retire, but there’s more. The Seattle area offers retirees spectacular hiking venues, year-round golf, wine country, excellent bird watching locales, and the state’s proximity to both the Pacific Ocean and nearby mountains ranges gives retirees even more to do.

The picturesque, heavily forested San Juan Islands—accessible by ferry, private boat and plane—and destinations in the Puget Sound are a huge draw for retirees who like to fish, ski, sea kayak, sail and whale-watch. Not to mention abundant city-shopping and art museums to visit.

The Seattle area is filled with wonderful assisted living residences and communities. Here are a few to consider when searching for the perfect place to retire.
