Seattle's Baby Boomers now have a tailored resource to assist them in finding the perfect housing options for their retirement years. The After 55™ Housing and Resource Guide, a publication by For Rent Media Solutions™, a division of Dominion Enterprises, has been introduced to cater to the unique needs of this demographic. As of its launch, the guide offers a wealth of information on various living arrangements, from independent living to assisted living and continuing care retirement communities, all within the vibrant city of Seattle.
Baby Boomers, a generation of approximately 78 million Americans born between 1946 and 1964, are reshaping the housing market as they transition into retirement. According to a report by the National Association of Realtors, Baby Boomers represent a significant portion of homebuyers, with 43% purchasing senior-related housing for themselves or their relatives. This demographic is seeking housing that aligns with their active lifestyles, low-maintenance requirements, and desires for community engagement.
Seattle has emerged as an attractive destination for retirees, with its robust healthcare facilities, cultural attractions, and natural beauty. The city's appeal is reflected in the 2008 National Apartment Index, which ranked Seattle as the second-best market for apartment living. Census data from 2007 indicated that 30% of Seattle's population was aged 50 or better, highlighting the city's readiness to accommodate the needs of older adults. With 245 skilled nursing and assisted living facilities counted in the previous year, Seattle offers a supportive environment for aging individuals.
The After 55 Housing and Resource Guide is a monthly publication that can be found in 800 locations across Seattle, including high-traffic areas such as Safeway™, Top Food & Drug, Winco, Sam’s Club®, Denny’s®, and Shari’s®. It is also available in senior centers and hospitals, ensuring easy access for those seeking information on housing options.
For those preferring digital access, the guide powers SeniorOutlook.com, an online platform that extends the publication's reach.
