Rental apartments for seniors

If your strength is waning, but you still want to live independently, an assisted senior rental apartment can provide you with the security and assistance you need. Depending on your needs, you can receive both housekeeping and nursing assistance in these apartments.

Not everyone wants to live in a retirement home or nursing home.
For these people, an assisted living apartment for seniors can
can be a good option.
Because here the tenant can decide for himself:
Do I want to use the common rooms?
Which of the services do I want to use?
Do I want to participate in community activities?

The city of Stuttgart has about 700 rental apartments for seniors.
The city of Stuttgart gets money for the apartments.
The money comes from Germany and the state of Baden-Württemberg.
That is why the rents for the apartments are cheap.
The rent costs between 6 euros and 9 euros
for each square meter of space in the apartment.
One square meter is the area of one meter by one meter.

In addition to the rent, you also have to pay money for care.
This is about 110 euros a month for one person.

Who can rent such an apartment?
