What makes these community living centers worse, is that the income-qualified seniors frequently underestimate the true cost of living there, at least initially. When some of these seniors did additional homework, many revised their estimates upwards. The results were a more favorable comparison between the income-qualified senior's current cost of living with today's rise in higher service fees for independent community living centers.

While prevailing wisdom offered hints that this perceived cost gap might not be that significant, there was no significant quantitative evidence regarding these comparative costs of living. The American Senior Housing Association (ASHA) recently hired Moore Diversified Services to investigate this important issue.

Looking for a Place to call home.              Reply to this Comment

My name is Sandra MacDonald. I am a 59 year old disabled woman. I can not work and must rely on my disability insurance limitted income and medicare. I would like to rent a room with kitchen priveledges in Harris County TX. The most that I can afford is $500/month. I can walk and I drive. I also own my own car. I don't want to live alone in my own apartment and would prefer the company of another senior citizen. I must stay in Harris County for my medical benefits and doctors are located here. If you would like to speak with me about a room rental, please call me at 832-928-4546 or email me your contact information and I will call you.

Aging In Place w/ Home Modifications              Reply to this Comment

Hello, my name is Scarlette, I'm with AsF Interior Re-Design located in Southern California. I'm here to tell you about "Aging In Place" or also known as remaining in your home independently, safely, and comfortably, regardless of income, age or ability level. This means having the pleasure of living in YOUR own environment throughout your maturing years and being able to enjoy your daily routine and special events in your life. You will be able to call your "house" your home for a lifetime. First ask yourself these questions: 1. Is it hard walking up your front steps just to get into your home? 2. Do you find it difficult to stand up in the shower without something to hold on to? 3. Is it difficult to get your wheelchair though the doorways of your home? 4. Does it seem like you can't get up out of your sofa or chair once you get in it? 5. Do you feel a little unsteady walking up your stairs or even down a hallway? If you answered yes to one or more of these questions then we are sure that our company AsF Interior Re-Design can help you. The process of helping you to feel more at ease is by evaluating your home to find out what specific design will help you in your daily living. The following list is just a few of the many home modifications we can help you with: Install grab bars in your shower and by your toilet, Turn your porch steps into an accessible wheelchair ramp, Elevate your toilet seat, Expand your doorways to fit wheelchairs or walkers, Install folding shower seats, Raise the level of your bed and sitting chairs, Lower closets shelving and cabinets, Replace round doorknobs with lever handles, Install lever-handle faucets in kitchens and bathrooms, Install slide-out shelving in your kitchen or bedroom, Buy clocks with large numerals, Install smoke detectors near kitchens and bedrooms, Edge stairs with bright non-skid tape to highlight changes in floor levels, Install anti-scald devices on faucets and shower heads, Install hand rails by stairs and down hallways, Install easy to turn on and off light switches, Install more lighting where necessary, Install door hinges that allow you to swing open either direction, Also we will help you find different devices to help you throughout your home. (bigger numbered clocks/ telephone, touch lamps, reaching devices, kitchen/bathroom devices, and much more!) Now I'm sure your thinking to yourself that these changes would be great to have but.....are they going to be stylish and attractive?? The answer to your question is YES, we will help you make your home comfy and pleasant to look at, at the same time. There are many different designs for most modification changes. From your grab bars to your handrails to your wheelchair ramp, elevated toilet seat, door knobs and more. There are many other things that we, AsF Interior Design, can help you with.

I am a 60 yr.old disabled woman who is looking to buy a home in Port Huron, MI. If this is not possible I would rent, but not in senior housing unless it would be in a mobile home park. I don't drive and I have a small disability, but I have excellent credit. Thank you. I can be reached at Millirebecca@aol.com

I was just at this facility and met some of the most caring people I would say it is one of the best I've encountered. Anyone should go visit this place and see for themselves this is malicious slander and unfortunate!

Michigan (metro detroit) House Share!              Reply to this Comment

Hi, hopefully this note gets to the right area... I have a BEAUTUFUL 4000+ square foot ranch home that is in need of companionship. I am just too busy to be home most of the day, and I thought a senior gentleman would really and truly appreciate the lifestyle of living up north. The home is a brick ranch, 4300 square feet on 2+ secluded acres, backing to a stream and river. The house has baseboard heat (no dust), central air, 1st floor laundry, cable TV, natural fireplaces, a walkout lower level to watch the deer graze. The property is heavily wooded..the folks at the senior center (right down the street) can walk to my home...anyone have any ideas where I can market this home to share?? rent is neg..approx $750 per month, including all amenities... thanks! sterling heights - macomb county area.... rich4778@yahoo.com
