If you're looking for a Lakewood assisted living facility (ALF), you'll find dozens of options waiting to be explored whether you want a small, home-like facility or a retirement community.
It's perhaps Lakewood's location - just west of Denver and east of the Rocky Mountains - that makes it an ideal spot for retirees. Denver is loaded with cultural attractions, four professional sports teams, and enough restaurants so you'll never eat at the same one twice. The looming Rocky Mountains provide a vast playground whether you like outdoor recreation or exploring historic mining towns.
Like many cities along Colorado's Front Range, Lakewood is dotted in green with open space and parks. The 2,600-acre Bear Creek Lake Park offers a beach, fishing, walking trails, and naturalist programs at the Visitor Center. Hayden Park and Green Mountain offers plenty of hiking/walking trails, wildlife, and commanding views from the 6,800-foot summit!
Drop by the Clements Community Center's and its Older Adult Services program. You'll find classes, dances, support services, travel, and outdoor recreation.
Here are a few financial facts to get you started in your search for Lakewood assisted living. Lakewood's overall cost of living is 11% higher than the U.S. average.
