United States Senior Living Market Trends

Senior Housing Witnessing Increased Demand

• According to data from the National Investment Centre for Older Persons, occupancy rates are at an all-time high in the elderly housing and care sector. With an occupancy rate of 82.1% as of August 2023, assisted living had the highest quarterly increase in all categories of care.

• There are approximately 32,820 assisted living communities in the United States, according to the most recent data from the National Center for Assisted Living.
