Information About Assisted Living in Boston

Old-world charm, stunning architecture, vibrant cultural charisma, and a rich and remarkable history are all characteristics that have helped place Boston third in nationwide livability rankings and 37th globally. Boston is the largest city in Massachusetts, home to nearly 618,000 residents within the city limits, and also one of the oldest cities in the United States, founded in 1630.

Boston’s history has had a lasting impact on the city politically, culturally and economically, and seniors who choose assisted living in Boston live at the heart of a thriving Mecca that has become an international icon for medicine, higher education and entertainment.

Boston Attractions

Sports fans and history buffs have plenty to see and do in Boston. The Boston Sports Trail walks fans through a historic tour around Fenway Park, the oldest sports stadium in use in the United States. The Freedom Trail is also a fun, guided excursion for those interested in famous historical and political events, such as the Boston Tea Party, Boston Massacre and several prominent battles during the American Revolution.

Residents of assisted living in Boston will be front and center in one of the United States’ largest and most famous fireworks displays. The banks of the Charles River come alive on the fourth of each July with church bells, howitzer cannons and a stunning display of fireworks.

Boston Senior Activities

While most assisted living homes in Boston offer residents a variety of fun and engaging activities, many residents also choose to head to the Veronica B. Smith Senior Center to take part in the many fitness, dance and educational programs offered by the city.

For those wanting something more, the city has its own thriving scene for seniors enjoying assisted living in Boston. The Boston Opera House and Boston Symphony Orchestra are local entertainment favorites, and relaxation and leisure can be found in beautiful Boston Common, one of the oldest parks in the nation.

Boston Medical Facilities

Wellness and innovation is a Boston forté, and many of Boston’s prominent medical and research facilities can be found in one tight-knit area, known as The Longwood Medical and Academic Area (LMA). The LMA is a 175-acre community that hosts educational, healthcare and religious institutions, along with museums and colleges.

The Harvard Medical School, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Joslin Diabetes Center are just a few of the facilities found in the LMA. Residents of assisted living in Boston will feel safe and sound knowing that such top-tier facilities are right within reach.

Boston Transit

Boston is a city known for its public transportation. It boasts the fourth-highest rate of public transit usage, providing residents with an underground rapid transit subway system (the first in the country), commuter rail, an Amtrak line, ferry service and a bustling bus system, all operated by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority.

With such a robust offering of transit options, residents of assisted living of Boston never have to worry about driving or getting safely and quickly to where they need to go.

Cost of Assisted Living in Boston

As one of the largest metropolitan areas in the country and the largest in New England, Boston boasts one of the highest costs of living in the United States. Assisted living costs are correspondingly high, with a private, one-bedroom unit renting for a median monthly rate of $5,089.*

However, assisted living costs fluctuate throughout the Boston area with some communities charging as little as $1,900 per month and some charging as much as $6,465. Seniors should plan on spending at least $61,000 a year for assisted living in Boston.
