Families considering assisted living in Delaware will find themselves in a unique position. Of all its neighboring Northeastern U.S. states, Delaware is one of the smallest in area but also one of the most densely populated, and its residents are never too far from a coastline. Beyond the variety of outdoor recreation provided by the Atlantic shores or Chesapeake and Delaware Bays, Delaware’s largest metropolitan area, Wilmington, is well-connected to other major cities like Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. Of course, historic sites are plentiful throughout the state, as Delaware took the lead among colonies signing the U.S. Constitution in 1787 and therefore is known as “The First State.” Retirement in Delaware may mean fewer options for senior living, but opportunities are always nearby.Currently, A Place for Mom partners with more than 15 senior living communities in Delaware that provide assisted living.

The median monthly cost of assisted living in Delaware is about $5,400.

The reason we gave the meals a 4 is because it is a smaller facility, their menu is not that big but the quality of food is above average. There are activities everyday but some days have more than others....

The building is old but kept up well. It has large windows with lots of light. One of the selling points for my Mom. But the windows are old and leaky. A contractor has measured them and we are told they are...

5 on all categories. The bus trips to lunch, stores, and sightseeing are hugely important. Bringing in entertainment helps the atmosphere lively and engaging.

Everyone is super friendly. Like that independent & assisted living is mixed, not separated. There is not enough community space for bingo, crafts, cards, etc. there is no large community room.
