Today’s seniors are all about staying active, getting online and traveling the world. After all, we all age, so why not age well?
This month, we unveil our all-new list of the region’s leading communities for active seniors. Sort by name, location, or type of facility.
Top Senior Living Communities List
About the List
DataJoe created and implemented a research campaign to identify the top retirement facilities and providers in the area. We consulted various public sources, including state and federal government sources, to collect our initial information. As applicable, we eliminated facilities that did not meet our minimum-capacity threshold, to increase the likelihood that the identified set would have openings for readers interested in contacting these facilities (reader relevance). We then factored in federal government ratings (where applicable) and frequency of negative reports to the state regulatory agency (complaints, disciplinary actions and enforcement actions, as available to the public), to isolate the top candidates for our list. Finally, we also conducted internet research to check various local media outlets to confirm a positive community perception and factored in online ratings. We were looking for facilities that meet our minimum thresholds with the highest ratings and the smallest proportion of negative reports/press. After the list was completed, Philadelphia sent a copy to its sales staff. They, in turn, offered advertisements to the winners. Whether or not a community purchased an ad had no impact on the creation of this list.
We recognize that many facilities/providers do not appear on this representative list. This is a sampling of the huge array of service providers within the region. Inclusion in the list is based on information that we were able to gather via our independent research. We take time and energy to ensure a fair, multi-faceted research process. We certainly do not discount the fact that many, many good and effective providers and facilities may not appear on the list.
