Living in old age

Housing in old age is a key issue. Senior citizens need affordable, low-barrier and well-connected housing options. This also promotes a self-determined life for our older citizens.

Living in old age

The state capital of Wiesbaden offers a large number of apartments for senior citizens in cooperation with various housing companies. Some of these are publicly subsidized and are rented exclusively to low-income households. A selection of these apartments are rented out by the department's own rental office. The other part is privately financed and can be rented by citizens at any income level.

The question of "assisted living" is often asked. The term "assisted living" is not uniformly defined and describes different forms of housing and care whose costs and services vary. It is worth taking a closer look at the individual offers in order to compare them with your own ideas and possibilities. The advice center for independent living in old age will be happy to help you with any questions about financing these services. You will find the link to the contact persons below.
