Aging Well
Design your retirement exactly as you wish.
The welcome
transformation of retirement living continues, and examples of this new and
improved way to live life during your senior years can be found in sought-after
communities throughout Dallas. The demand for luxury living is high, so it’s
never too early to start planning and touring to explore everything
offered—from cocktail hours and pickleball games to continuing education and
daily chef-crafted meals.
On the long
list of things to check off in life, enjoying a nice retirement is usually at
the top. What far too often keeps getting pushed to the bottom of the list is
saving money to fund this goal.
At the
beginning of one’s career, retirement seems so far away that it’s difficult to
envision, which means big-ticket items often take priority over saving for
retirement—paying off student loans, weddings, traveling, buying a home, and
building the kids’ college funds among them. Those in good health who have
managed to plan and save for retirement in between life’s milestones have a
good shot at the opportunity to design and enjoy their retirement exactly as
they wish. For those who are behind, it’s never too late to start saving, but
financial planners advise to begin today. There is much to love about today’s
retirement living options, making it even more imperative to work with a
financial planner and remain committed to a plan so that retirement is something
to look forward to—not to fear.
“By the year
2034, the U.S. census projects that older adults will outnumber children for
the first time in our history—that’s a significant transition,” says Russell
Crews, president and CEO of Dallas’ CC Young senior living community. “And from
2024 to 2039, the population in the U.S. of those age 75 and older will
increase from 20 million to 45 million. These demographics are almost
overwhelming to consider. Right now, there are some Baby Boomers at CC Young,
but within the next 15 years, the majority will be in this group. One of the
biggest challenges for them will be affordability. No one has the answer, but
the message is that you can’t start planning too soon.”
“All roads lead back to planning. We
plan for college, weddings, and buying a home. Planning for retirement is just
as important.”
Russell Crews, CC Young
Inflation and
continuing discussions about a looming recession have upended the economy,
leaving those who are newly retired and soon-to-retire panicked about the
losses in their portfolios–the savings that will fund this life of fun and
freedom. Those who are 10 to 15 years away from retirement are also impacted,
as there is little time to make up for the losses. A resetting is taking place
and as older adults are coming to terms with how much they will need to fund
their goals.
“Retirement
living is only going to get more expensive through the years,” Crews says.
“Inflation has created chaos in rates that are needed to support the operations
of senior living communities. Historically, most communities have had standard
3% to 4% increases, but we have been seeing 6% to even 15%. When seniors look
at that and do the compounding, it’s easy for them to become distraught. Sadly,
inflation has wreaked havoc on senior living cost structures.”
Of course,
funding retirement is only one aspect of long-term planning. Taking the time to
reflect on what you want for yourself in retirement is also critical. Staying
healthy, active, and engaged with friends and family as well as making the time
to pursue interests is just as important as saving money in preparation for
retirement so the change in routine isn’t such a shock. Financial advisors
recommend examining assets and liabilities. Think about downsizing. Tackle
debts and limit liabilities, such as financially supporting older children.
Work with a financial planner about options for saving, including weighing the
pros and cons of purchasing long-term care insurance. Also consider what you
can realistically afford after you stop working and try to mimic living that
lifestyle now as much as possible to become adjusted to it.
“Some care
expenses can potentially be offset through personal savings, private insurance
policies, or government initiative, such as Medicare, Medicaid, and benefits
for veterans,” says Chad Hubbard, executive director with the Preston of the
Park Cities, a Watermark community. “For those planning for the future, I
recommended starting a dedicated savings plan early and exploring long-term
care insurance. It’s essential to work with a financial advisor to create a
solid financial plan tailored to your unique needs.”
Jen Grant, a
Certified Financial Planner™ with Perryman Financial Advisory, says many of her
clients start becoming more focused on retirement savings once their kids have
graduated from college and live on their own. An official empty nest is the
signal to think about the next stage of life—retirement.
“There is a stage of life where you aren’t ready to retire and still enjoy working, but you are also aware that retirement isn’t far off,” Grant says. “I always tell my clients to really focus on their careers at this point. These are likely the highest income-earning years. Maybe you haven’t taken a promotion or moved for a better job because you didn’t want the changes to affect your kids. With this is no longer an issue, it’s time to step up.”
Here, Grant
shares her top tips on retirement planning and saving while you are still
working.
Reevaluate your
career. “If you aren’t happy where you are now with your job, find
something else where you can really dig in and enjoy your work and make—and
save—as much money as you can as you prepare for retirement. These should be
your high-income years, so be strategic about your plans.”
Play catch up. “With
most employer-sponsored retirement savings accounts, such as a 401-K, this is
likely the time you can make catch-up contributions or invest more from your
pay. Take every opportunity you can to increase contributions.”
Pay off debt. “This
is major, especially if you have co-signed on student loans. Make sure the kids
are ready to launch and take over their own student loans. Take your kids off
your health insurance, car insurance, and cell phone plans—even Netflix
subscriptions and Amazon Prime accounts. It all adds up, and there are a lot of
areas where you may not realize how much you are paying to support someone
else’s lifestyle.”
Live on one
salary. “If you are in a household with two working people, try to live on
one person’s salary and sock away that second person’s salary. It’s a great
feeling if you can manage it. If possible, divert that money into a retirement
savings account so you aren’t always fighting with your own personal desire for
things once you have a relief point.”
It’s never too
late. “Having something saved for retirement is better than nothing at
all. If you are still 10 to 15 years away from retirement, it’s time to make
some big adjustments. It’s easier to spread investments out over a decade
rather than a few years. If you wait, you’ll have fewer options. The next
couple of years will feel tighter than they have in the last 20 or so, but
having plan now will make life easier for everyone when you are no longer
working.”
The Choice Is Yours
Today’s
retirement communities offer everything you need and want.
The primary
reasons senior living communities throughout the Dallas area are undergoing
change are savvy developers and consumer demand. Today’s seniors who are
transitioning from their long-time homes to retirement communities want their
move to feel like a lifestyle upgrade—something that mimics the resorts where
they have been vacationing during the past decade or so. They want to continue
with their lives as usual—but without the hassles of home ownership. When
weekly happy hours, on-site spa services, front-door meal deliveries, and
planned trips and excursions are part of the deal, they know they are
home.
Senior living
community developers often own or manage 20 or more communities. They are
committed to keeping up with emerging trends and thinking ahead so that
residents can always take advantage of the latest amenities and services.
On-site medical clinics, golf simulators, upscale salons that rival what you’ll
find in Uptown Dallas, movie theatres, multiple libraries, and on-site
banks—today’s senior living perks make it easy for residents to enjoy the best
of everything right at home. “There is a lot of brain power at work, and
developers are constantly thinking about what’s next,” says John Falldine,
executive director of Edgemere. “In this industry, there will always be new
things coming to the market, and developers and managers listen to and incorporate
what their customers want.”
Approximately
53 million people in the United States are age 65 or older, according to the
U.S. Census Bureau. By 2060, this demographic is projected to double in size,
meaning that within the next several decades, one in five people will be senior
citizens making decisions about where, and how, they want to retire. The next
question is when to retire? If savings goals have been met, how do you know
when it’s time to make the move? Hubbard says this decision always varies from
person to person. Moving to a retirement community before your physical and
mental abilities require you to do so is often the smartest choice.
“It makes the
transition easier,” Hubbard says. “If you find it challenging to access
services or activities that enhance your quality of life, it may be time to
consider a move to a community where those amenities are very accessible
through assisted living or memory care. Common fears about moving to a
retirement community often involve the loss of independence and the unknown.
Many seniors worry about leaving their homes and familiar surroundings.
However, many are often surprised to discover they gain a newfound sense of
independence, social connections, and a vibrant lifestyle due to the emphasis
on social connection and community living.”
Once seniors
become more open to the idea of moving to a retirement community, they’ll do so
with one caveat—the senior living community they choose can’t resemble where
their grandparents and parents spent their senior years.
The Preston of the Park Cities, a Watermark community, offers a vibrant lifestyle with resort-style amenities that aren’t too far off from those of a luxury hotel—gourmet dining options and fitness and wellness programs among them. A concierge medical partnership offering access to in-house physicians and medical treatments, Watermark University for continuing education, multiple dining venues, and high-tech programs like EngageVR that offers the opportunity to explore the world—and outer space—right from the community are other perks members enjoy. Within most Watermark communities, residents use a key fob for entrance into and throughout the community, and the fob is what they use to charge meals or even order a cocktail in the lounge. Watermark University, or WU, addresses three circles of wellness—Mind: Growth, Creativity, Curiosity; Body: Motion, Health, Nutrition; Spirit: Peace, Insight, Wisdom; and Community, Connection, Purpose, Legacy. Students can take classes ranging from guitar lessons and music theory to gardening and tai chi at WU.
“Communities are devoting square
footage to incorporate more opportunities for overall wellness—not just
physical fitness. There is a move toward more holistic care.”
John Falldine, Edgemere
Highland
Springs, an Erickson senior living community in North Dallas, recently opened a
new clubhouse, a new residential building, and its eighth restaurant on campus
so that residents have even more options for living, dining, and entertainment.
With three fitness centers, an events space, and a long list of
activities—including the resident-requested pickleball and an updated
woodworking shop—there is always something going on and plenty of activities to
join.
“The customer
for any senior living community today is very different from the customer a
decade ago,” says Christina Christie, director of sales for Highland Springs.
“There is a huge emphasis on wellness in our community and we have been
proactive in offering opportunities for folks to stay physically active and
mentally sharp—everything from outdoor yoga to disc golf. We also recently
opened our labyrinth—a space for residents to take time to reflect and
meditate. We want our residents to know that this community can be anything
they want it to be, as the majority of our programs are resident driven.”
By the end of
2023, Anthology of Highland Park will be welcoming to residents to its 11-story
boutique community that offers a range of care, including independent living,
assisted living, and memory care—plus an on-site, upscale restaurant that is
also open to the public. Homes are designed to mimic what residents are
accustomed to—just downsized for an easier lifestyle. Some units offer two
bedrooms, and every unit includes a kitchenette and washer and dryer—perks not
often in found assisted living communities. “We refer to the community as an
assisted living community because residents can live here and be totally
independent and not need any assistance yet, but may need assistance in the
future, giving them the ability to stay in their apartment,” says Sherye
Groebe, director of sales and marketing for Anthology of Highland Park. “Having
a kitchen and a washer and dryer helps them keep the independence they are used
to. There are also one-bedroom and studio units to meet a variety of needs.”
Crews
attributes the spike in demand for more senior living options to seniors
wanting more socialization and an easier, stress-free lifestyle. “I think in
the next five or so years, the ability to tour around North Texas and take your
pick of senior living communities may not be as simple as it’s always been;
options are limited as we get into these exploding demographics,” he says.
“It’s very important during the early planning process to make sure the senior
living community you choose suits your lifestyle and has a culture that
supports your values. People tend to think a retirement community is where you
just fade away—that’s definitely not what happens here.”
CC Young Senior
Living has made it a priority to listen to what their residents truly want to
experience, and this includes sophisticated dining options, a full array of
life enriching and engaging activities at all levels of care, and new additions
to the offerings such as technology and language classes, technology throughout
the campus and on-campus technology support. CC Young also offers continuing
education classes through the OLLI program at UNT as well as enrichment
programming. The Point & Pavilion, CC Young’s 20,000-square-foot enrichment
center, serves thousands of visitors each month—residents and non-residents—who
participate in all the programs. The Point includes an art gallery, a
meditation area, café, and more. Seven dining venues, a dedicated move in
coordinator, a fitness center, and massage therapy are only a few of the
offerings at CC Young.
Edgemere
recently transitioned from a large entrance fee a to a one-time community fee
and monthly rental fee that covers all maintenance, dining, and base utilities.
Falldine says Edgemere has incorporated all the latest trends in senior living,
including the addition of a more casual café for residents who want an
alternative to formal dining and will soon have an on-site medical clinic and
expanded sundry store that also offers Italian desserts and coffees. Overall
wellness is a focus at Edgemere—social, physical, intellectual, and spiritual.
“One of the most dangerous things for seniors living at home is isolation,”
Falldine says. At Edgemere, as well as at other senior living communities,
residents have much opportunity to stay busy and socialize. Residents are
embracing those opportunities and are thriving.”
Shopping Around
The first step
to finding a retirement home is knowing which type of care you need.
Continuing Care
Retirement Community (CCRC). This is a community that provides all levels
of care, including independent living, assisted living, memory care, and
healthcare or nursing care (sometimes called skilled nursing) in one community.
Independent
Living. This is often a choice for those who are active, independent, and
don’t need any type of health or daily living assistance. Residents typically
live in apartments and create their own schedules.
Assisted
Living. This type of community provides housing options for seniors who
may need assistance with daily living tasks, such as dressing, bathing,
medications, meals, and activities. Fees vary depending on the level of
assistance required. Care can be increased or decreased as needed.
Residential
Care Home/Group Home. These are private homes that serve residents who
live together and receive care from live-in caretakers. Assistance with daily
activities is typically provided, and care is customized to each resident’s
needs. Because the resident-to-staff ratio is low, residents get more
one-on-one, personalized care.
Memory
Care/Alzheimer’s Care. These are secure communities that offer 24-hour
support with a specifically trained staff that specializes in caring for
patients with dementia or other types of loss of memory or Alzheimer’s disease.
Structured activities and assistance with meals and healthcare and daily tasks
are provided. Most communities have private pay and costs vary per month
depending on the level of assistance required. Medication management and
24-hour monitoring by licensed nurses and caregivers are typically included in
the price.
Nursing
Care/Skilled Care/Long-Term Care. Nursing care is typically designed for
someone who requires a high level of care for a short period of time, such as
recovering from a hospital stay or therapy services. Long-term care is for
residents who need a high level of care with complex medical conditions who
require a licensed nurse for a long period of time. Both levels offer around the-clock
care, meals, activities, and rehabilitative service under one roof.

As we get older, life naturally starts to feel a bit different. What once felt like the perfect family home can start to feel like a LOT of work. Cleaning empty bedrooms, climbing stairs, keeping up the yardsometimes it all adds up to more stress than comfort.If youve been thinking, Do I really need all this space?youre not alone. More and more older adults across the country, including here in the DallasFort Worth (DFW) area, are choosing to downsize (or as we like to say, rightsize) to something that better fits their current lifestyle. In fact, a 2024 report by the North Texas Real Estate Information Systems (NTREIS) showed that DFW homeowners aged 60+ accounted for nearly 1 in 4 home sales, many of whom were selling larger homes to move into smaller, more manageable properties or senior living communities. Whether it's relocating to a smaller home, a condo, or a retirement community, the decision can lead to less upkeep, more freedom, and a boost to your financesespecially in todays housing market. But with interest rates, housing prices, and inflation all playing a part, how do you know whats right for you?Lets break it down.Whats Happening with Interest Rates in 2025?As of April 2025, interest rates are still relatively high, with the average 30-year mortgage hovering around 6.7%7%. That might seem like a reason to waitbut for seniors who are selling a large, mortgage-free home, downsizing still makes strong financial sense.Why? Because many retirees are cash buyersmeaning you may not need a mortgage at all when purchasing a smaller home, condo, or moving into a retirement community.You can sell your current home (often at a high price, since real estate values have remained strong in many parts of the country) and use the equity to pay outright for a smaller propertyor invest it for future needs.Whats the Smarter Move: Smaller Home or Retirement Community?Before you start packing boxes or browsing condo listings, take a moment to reflect. Ask yourself: Do I want to cut monthly costs and free up some equity? Do I crave more social opportunities, built-in amenities, and less responsibility when it comes to maintaining a home? If you're nodding yes, downsizing may be the right next step. But the type of move depends on your lifestyle: A smaller home or condo may be perfect if you still want independence, privacy, and flexibility. A senior or retirement community is ideal if you value connection, convenience, and amenities like fitness classes, dining services, and on-site healthcare. Lets Talk Numbers: Is Downsizing Worth It?Heres a snapshot of the financial perks of downsizing in todays market:Lower Monthly Costs Housing payments: Based on a 2024 study from StorageCafe.com, downsizing from a 4-bedroom to a 2-bedroom home can save up to $200,000$500,000 depending on your location. Utilities: Smaller spaces mean lower bills. According to a survey conducted by Texas-based pre-paid electric company, Payless Power, nearly 20% of Americans downsize to cut energy costs. Property taxes & insurance: Historically, both of these usually decrease with a smaller, lower-valued home. Unlocking Equity Selling your current home can free up hundreds of thousands of dollars in equity. That money can be used to: -Invest in income-generating accounts or annuities -Pay for healthcare, travel, or family support -Cover future long-term care or in-home support services Lower Maintenance = Less Stress Repairs, yard work, and home maintenance costs all shrink with smaller properties or move-in-ready communities. If you move into a retirement community, things like snow shoveling, lawn care, and even housekeeping may be included. But What About the Costs of Moving?Its a great question. Moving can come with its own expensesbut many of those are one-time costs, and theyre often far outweighed by long-term savings and improved quality of life.Partnering with a senior relocation company like WellRive takes the stress out of downsizing by handling every detaildecluttering, packing, staging, coordinating the home sale, and getting you comfortably settled into your new space. Having dedicated, experienced support during a major life transition isnt just helpfulits truly invaluable.Lets Make This Your Best Move YetDownsizing isnt about giving upits about gaining more.

Eating healthy can help us maintain an active lifestyle. Good nutrition can help manage weight, boost energy, and prevent diseases. For caregivers, ensuring that seniors make nutritious choices while grocery shopping can significantly impact their overall well-being. With some simple strategies, shopping trips can become easier and more rewarding.Learning to Read Nutrition LabelsShopping smarter starts with deciphering nutrition labels. These labels are filled with valuable information about the foods we consume. Start by checking the serving size, as portions can be deceiving. Many packages contain multiple servings, which can impact calorie intake if you're not careful. Look at the total calories and consider how these fit into a daily diet.Pay attention to key nutrients such as:Carbohydrates, fats, and proteins for balanced energyVitamins and minerals to support immune and bone healthHidden sugars and unhealthy fats, which often go by names like high-fructose corn syrup or hydrogenated oilsReading nutrition labels thoroughly can help you make healthier choices and limit unnecessary sugars and fats that may lead to health concerns.Choosing Fresh ProduceIncorporating a diverse mix of fruits and vegetables offers numerous health benefits. Fresh produce is rich in essential nutrients that support overall health. In Colorado, local and seasonal produce might include:Spring: Leafy greens like spinach and kaleSummer: Berries, tomatoes, and zucchiniFall: Pumpkins, squash, and applesWinter: Root vegetables like carrots and potatoesWhen selecting fruits and vegetables, look for vibrant colors, firm textures, and fragrant aromas. These are indicators of freshness and ripeness. Avoid produce with bruises or blemishes, as these can indicate spoilage.Avoiding Processed FoodsProcessed foods are often high in unhealthy fats, sugars, and preservatives, which can adversely affect health. Limiting these items is key to maintaining a nutritious diet.When shopping, try these swaps:Choose plain yogurt over flavored optionsOpt for fresh meats instead of packaged deli itemsSelect whole grains like brown rice or quinoa instead of refined white breadStock up on healthy snacks like nuts, seeds, and fresh fruits instead of processed snacksBy focusing on whole, natural foods, you can provide better nutritional support for seniors.Navigating Store Sections for Optimal NutritionSuccessful shopping for nutritious foods is all about knowing where to look. Grocery stores are generally organized with perimeter sections offering the freshest options, such as produce, dairy, and meats. You'll find the healthiest, least processed foods in these areas.Take time to explore the inner aisles for important staples, too. Whole grains, nuts, and legumes are often nutritious options in these sections. Just remember, the closer a food looks to how it appears in nature, the healthier it will likely be.Need Support with Healthy Eating at Home?Making informed choices at the grocery store is vital for better health.

Alzheimers disease affects more than six million Americans, and that number continues to rise. The progression of the disease is unpredictable, making it difficult for families to anticipate the level of care their loved ones will need. Memory impairments such as Alzheimers and dementia require 24/7 support, and while many families step in as caregivers, the burden can be overwhelming. According to the Alzheimers Association, over 11 million Americans provide unpaid care for loved ones suffering from memory disorders. As cognitive decline progresses, transitioning to a professional community may be the best solution for ensuring safety, quality of life, and comprehensive care.Memory care facilities offer specialized environments tailored to individuals with Alzheimers, dementia, and other cognitive impairments. These communities provide structured routines, engaging activities, and medical support designed to enhance residents well-being. With approximately 30,000 assisted living communities offering memory care nationwide, finding the right facility requires careful consideration. This guide will help you navigate the decision-making process and find the best memory care facility in Pittsburgh, PA.Key Factors to Consider When Choosing Memory Care in Pittsburgh, PA1. Reputation and ExperienceCommunity Reputation: A memory care facilitys reputation is a strong indicator of its quality. Reading online reviews, speaking with current residents' families, and scheduling tours can provide insight into the facilitys strengths and weaknesses. Word of mouth and personal recommendations can also be valuable in evaluating the communitys track record.Licensing and Inspections: Communities must adhere to state regulations, including licensing requirements and periodic inspections. Each state has different oversight policies, typically managed by the Department of Health or Social Services. Reviewing inspection reports can help assess the facilitys compliance with health and safety standards.Staff Certification and Training: Experienced, licensed, and well-trained staff members are essential in a memory care facility. Look for communities where staff members hold certifications such as Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP) credentials. Long-tenured staff members often indicate a well-managed and positive working environment, which directly benefits residents.2. Facility Atmosphere and EnvironmentCleanliness and Ambience: A well-maintained and welcoming facility contributes to residents comfort. When touring, observe whether the environment feels home-like, whether common areas are clean, and whether residents appear engaged and content.Engaged and Compassionate Staff: Staff members play a crucial role in residents daily lives. They should be warm, attentive, and passionate about providing care. Observe staff interactions with residents to gauge their level of attentiveness and compassion.3. Services and Amenities OfferedPersonalized Care Plans: Each resident has unique needs, and individualized care plans become crucial. 24/7 nursing support, medication management, and assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) are essential components of comprehensive memory care.Safe and Secure Environment: Security is a top priority. Having a secure wing with features such as secure entrances, wander management systems (like WanderGuard), and in-room emergency call buttons ensure resident safety.Recreational Activities and Engagement: Mental and physical stimulation is vital for individuals with dementia. Facilities should offer daily programs, such as music therapy, art sessions, exercise classes, and social gatherings. When touring a facility, ask for an activity calendar to see the range of options available.4. Dining and NutritionDietary Accommodations: Many residents in memory care have specific dietary needs. Look for facilities that offer dietitian-approved meal plans catering to various dietary restrictions, including diabetic-friendly, heart-healthy, and allergen-free options.Family Dining Options: Some communities allow family members to join residents for meals, fostering social connections and maintaining family bonds. Inquire about visitor policies regarding shared meals and private dining areas.5. Costs and Financial ConsiderationsUnderstanding Pricing Structures: Care costs vary depending on the level of care and amenities offered. When evaluating options in Pittsburgh, PA, ask the following: Are there entrance fees? What services are included in the base rate? Are there additional charges for specialized care? How frequently do rates increase? Many facilities offer financial assistance programs or accept long-term care insurance, veterans benefits, or Medicaid waivers. Exploring these options can help make care more affordable.Why Pittsburgh is a great fitPittsburgh is known for its strong sense of community, high-quality healthcare institutions, and beautiful surroundings, making it an excellent location for memory care. The city is home to top-rated hospitals, including UPMC and Allegheny Health Network, which offer specialized geriatric and neurological care.Additionally, the city is able to integrate local culture and outdoor spaces into their programs. Many communities offer outings to the citys parks, museums, and cultural attractions, ensuring residents stay engaged with their environment.ConclusionSelecting a memory care facility for a loved one is a significant decision that requires careful research and planning. By evaluating factors such as staff experience, facility atmosphere, security measures, services, and costs, families can make informed choices that prioritize their loved ones well-being.If you are searching for the best memory care facility in Pittsburgh, PA, take the time to visit multiple locations, ask detailed questions, and consider what environment will provide the highest quality of life for your loved one.
