Independent Living communities usually have an age requirement to become a Resident there. Many require Residents to be at least 60 years of age or older; but, there are exceptions. Other places have a requirement of 55 years of age or older. In most cases, a community that is formally called an "Independent Living Community" or "Senior Living Community" will offer many more Activities on a daily basis, each month. Whereas "55+ Communities or Apartment Complexes" usually have less scheduled activities in an entire month.

Most Independent Living communities have a Dining Services department with trained cooks or even a Chef who prepare THREE (3) meals each day which are served in Restaurant Style Dining. Others offer TWO (2) meals a day; but, they also have apartments with full kitchens in them, to accommodate Residents who want the flexibility of cooking at least one of their own meals. Some Independent Living communities that are considered 55+ Communities, or 55+ Apartment Complexes, usually do not provide regular meals.
