Independent Living in Wisconsin

Overview of Independent Living in Wisconsin

Wisconsin sits in the northern portion of the Midwest and is often referred to as “America’s Dairyland,” due to the state’s large number of dairy farms. Besides having great cheese, Wisconsin is known as a northern oasis, with many lakes and streams throughout the state – Wisconsin has some of the highest concentrations of fresh water in the country. Popular local pastimes include fishing, boating, hunting, and cheering on the Green Bay Packers. Whether you prefer spending time outdoors or enjoy living in a major city like Milwaukee, Wisconsin has got you covered.

Currently, A Place for Mom partners with more than 120 independent living communities in Wisconsin. The median monthly cost of independent living in Wisconsin is about $2,400.

It's obvious how much the staff at Holidays Middleton care for the residents on a personal level. I don't know all the staff, but the 2 that I encounter somewhat regularly are of whom I speak.
