Independent Living in Kentucky

Overview of Independent Living in Kentucky

Known for its large fields of blue-tinged grass, Kentucky is often referred to as “The Bluegrass State.” The state is also famous for its role in horse breeding and equestrian sports. One of the most popular events in the state is the Kentucky Derby held at Churchill Downs, nicknamed “The Fastest Two Minutes in Sports.” Cities like Louisville and Lexington have a welcoming charm, with plenty of historic sites and tons of world-class amenities to offer. The state is also in close proximity to other nearby major cities, such as Cincinnati, St. Louis, and Nashville, making it a convenient place to call home and an ideal place to retire.

Currently, A Place for Mom partners with more than 60 independent living communities in Kentucky. The median monthly cost of independent living in Kentucky is about $2,600.

I would recommend it to others. We were attracted by the price, the size of their rooms, the services like onsite physical therapy, outings, groups (social) and the meal options.

The staff at Legacy Living is friendly and worked with mom and family to resolve concerns. The room size is good, enough to not feel squished in. Salon, fitness center theater are very convenient

The facility has changed management and gone up on the cost. We've noticed some decline in service, but are hopeful it's just kinks being worked out. The staff is SUPER kind and attentive to concerns.

Make sure of the transportation situation, if that service is something that is important to the new resident. The apartment size is adequate, amenities are okay.
