There are many types of housing facilities for seniors, and senior apartments provide one of the satisfactory answers for many.  Senior apartments are often quite similar to apartments available to anyone, but often senior apartments are designed to accommodate some of the special needs or wishes of senior citizens.  For those seniors who are still relatively young and active, senior apartments may be found which simply have a little added security  Such senior apartments might have regular security guards on the premises.  Other senior apartments may offer security in terms of a lobby and ring-in system which avoids any unannounced visitors.
Other senior apartments are designed to offer some assisted living services, such senior apartments being suitable for older or partially disabled seniors. In some cases, senior apartments may simply have some specially designed facilities which make it easier for seniors to use showers or baths, or devices which help prevent slipping or falling.

All this in a secure, landscaped, gated area.
Certainly a very wide range of accommodations comes under the heading of senior apartments. There is something to meet every need and in every community there are senior apartments which can suit the lifestyles and the budget of seniors with varying income and many interests.
