Gay Friendly Assisted Living:

Having a place to go when you retire that is loving, and without prejudice can be difficult, especially if you happen to be gay, and in need of assisted living. I can think of only one ad or listing on my site that caters to gay/lesbian folks. That's not because I don't want them on there - quite to the contrary, I wish there were more listings, and I hope that as time goes on people become more sensitive and open to this need.

In any assisted living facility, it is imperative to surround yourself with like-minded people. After all, these are the people you are likely to be "roommates" with. I remember all of the times when I was younger and living in a combined-housing or roommate situation that who you live with and around makes all of the difference when it comes to your happiness. I remember one place I lived in that was by all standards a "dump" but it was one of the places I was happiest, because the people that lived there with me were respectful and we had a lot in common.

There is no difference with this and living with others after you retire.

Gay Friendly may also be referred to as alternative lifestyles.
