"Downsizing is about making life more manageable. It's about assessing what's most important, editing, and eliminating the unimportant. It's living a smaller, more enjoyable life and loving the outcome."

ANNOUNCEMENTS
LAUNCHING: JULY 1st, our new "Senior Living in Kansas City" web page!
It's been a road of insight and discovery. Over the past couple of months, we've gathered the key information needed to compile a comprehensive database, formatted into a very special page that will assist visitors in their quest to discover the perfect new community to call home.
The Senior Living in Kansas City web page features all senior living communities currently available in the Greater Kansas City Metro — Independent (IL), Assisted Living (AL), and Memory Care (MC). For ease of use, the page is organized by State, then by Region (North of the River, etc.) and City, with all communities listed alphabetically within the specific area of interest for the page visitor.
The advantage: the page visitor can locate their preferred Metro area and immediately view all communities within it. It's an easy search approach, unlike the algorithm-driven search results encountered in general internet queries.
In addition to the community listings, a section of the page outlines the different types of communities, making it easier for visitors to understand the community's designation — Independent, Assisted, or Memory Care. (Each community has a designation following its name.)
For Communities...
Our "Front Door" Program.
To better accommodate page visitors, we've designed and implemented our new "Front Door" Program, which will give participating program communities direct links from their community listings on our page to their homepages. We believe this page will be a valuable resource for our site visitors AND participating program communities. *
The "Front Door" program will launch on July 1st, and we've already begun reaching out to communities regarding interest and participation. We are scheduled to roll out the program details beginning the week of May 18th.
For communities wanting the program specifics, please connect with us via the CONTACT page, by phone (816) 358-6338 or email, info@downsizingsimplified.com (all accessible through the Contact page), and we'll make sure the information gets to you.
*The "Front Door" Program is an affordable opportunity for communities and is based on a yearly subscription fee, and not a per-click or referral fee.
Now the numbers!
These are the numbers representing the available senior living communities across the Greater Kansas City Metro. There are 121 total brick-and-mortar communities (IL, AL, and MC) listed on our new web page, Senior Living in Kansas City.
Here's the breakdown of senior living options within those 121 communities:
72 Independent Living (IL)
87 Assisted Living (AL)
43 Memory Care (MC)
TOTAL: 202
In addition, 61 Senior Apartment Buildings and Subsidized Housing Units/Apartments are also listed.
