Senior Living Communities That Help People Live Better Lives

As the developers and managers of every community we construct, Erickson Senior Living® is invested in the long-term success of our campuses and in creating environments where residents will thrive.

Making a Difference Through Innovative Development and Design

We use careful research and a thoughtful, measured growth strategy to bring our unparalleled lifestyle to seniors across the nation.

Erickson Senior Living focuses on how each campus can fit within the surrounding community, creating positive impacts for its neighbors and providing a better quality of life for seniors.

Tangible examples of the positive impact of a typical Erickson Senior Living community include:

  • Significant contributor to local real estate, payroll, and sales tax contributions annually
  • Zero school impact and relatively small traffic impact
  • Hundreds of jobs created in service, professional, and medical fields
  • Both social and economic impact to local communities from our residents

At Erickson Senior Living, we recognize that there are many stakeholders involved in our senior living development projects. We collaborate with local citizens and community associations, elected officials, and other interested parties to achieve mutually desirable outcomes.

A key component of our model is our long-term commitment to manage and invest in our communities long after they open and begin operating. Our ongoing relationship with all stakeholders is critical to ensuring the success of each development well beyond final construction.

We are committed to our growth with several billion dollars planned for investment in new construction and reposition projects within our existing communities over the next five years to meet the need of the growing senior population.

ior Living is committed to being a good steward of the environment by reducing and recycling energy, waste, and water. Sustainability is integrated into the fabric of our culture, influencing how we design, construct, and operate our buildings.
