Some of the nicer ones have their own onsite golf course. It is clean, quiet, bright, with art on the walls, not bad at all.
I think you are confusing "assisted living" with "convalescent hospital"

Point taken Scott. I was thinking more of a nursing home situation. Assisted living is not the same thing.
I'm going to have a talk with my Mom soon and ask her what her plan is - if she has one. At 87 - so far so good....still driving and living independently at her own home in a nice neighborhood about a 10 minute drive from me.
It will all change one day though....
