Assisted Living in Stamford, CT

Stamford is the largest city in Connecticut and is built around a large bay on Long Island Sound, at the mouth of the Rippowam River. Its population is the third-largest in the state, with just over 120,000 inhabitants calling the city home and 14% of the population consisting of individuals 65 years and older. Stamford has a temperate climate with warm, mildly humid summers and cool winters with lower snowfall than the cities in Connecticut’s interior. Stamford is also the second-largest financial center in the New York metropolitan area and is home to a 118-acre museum and nature center and botanical gardens that contain a number of Champion trees, the largest of their species in Connecticut. It also has several parks, golf courses, a yacht club and a hospital as well as regular performances by the Stamford Orchestra and the Connecticut Grand Opera.

Assisted living communities can provide care and services to help older adults thrive, including assistance with personal grooming, medication management, household chores and meal preparation. In Stamford, care at a facility like this costs about $6,273 per month.
