Independent living refers to a lifestyle where individuals, often seniors or people with disabilities, live on their own while managing their daily activities without assistance. This can include tasks like cooking, cleaning, and personal care. Independent living communities may offer resources and support, such as social activities and transportation services, to help residents maintain their autonomy. These communities are designed to promote self-sufficiency while providing a safe environment. Residents can enjoy their privacy and freedom while having access to amenities and social opportunities. This approach encourages a sense of community and belonging among individuals who share similar life experiences.
