Living in Rhode Island offers many advantages — close-knit communities, rich history, and the comfort of familiarity. But one of the unique benefits of living in New England is how easily you can explore nearby states without feeling far from home.
Just over the border in Connecticut, a retirement option many Rhode Islanders are discovering is the Life Plan Community (also known as a Continuing Care Retirement Community). For many, considering retirement communities near RI is a smart, practical way to stay close to family and familiar surroundings while gaining peace of mind for the years ahead. One Life Plan Community near Rhode Island is Vista Point at Fairview — a nonprofit community offering a lifestyle designed for active older adults who value independence today and security for the future.
Rhode Islanders tend to plan carefully — and for good reason. The nationally recognized Age Well Study evaluated the health and well-being of more than 5,100 residents across 80 Life Plan Communities. When compared to similar older adults living outside these communities, residents were found to:
With fitness centers, enriching programs, chef-prepared meals, and meaningful social opportunities all on-site, Life Plan Communities make it easier to invest in your well-being — without overcomplicating life.
Many Rhode Islanders value independence but are ready to let go of home maintenance, winter upkeep, and ongoing household responsibilities.
In a Life Plan Community, you can enjoy a private residence without worrying about repairs, yard work, or finding help when something goes wrong. Residents often say they didn’t realize how much time and energy those responsibilities took — until they were gone.
On-site amenities mean fewer trips across town and less time behind the wheel. Whether it’s meeting friends for a meal, attending a lecture, or enjoying a swim, everything is close at hand. Transportation services make it easy to get where you want to go, while still giving you the freedom to come and go on your own terms.
Rhode Islanders understand the value of planning ahead — especially when it comes to health care. A recent survey found that more than 60% of older adults have no formal plan for future care needs.
Life Plan Communities remove uncertainty by offering access to higher levels of care on the same campus, if ever needed. That means fewer disruptions, less stress for loved ones, and confidence knowing your future is accounted for — without giving up the lifestyle you enjoy today.
Additional benefit: A portion of entrance and monthly fees may be tax-deductible. Your tax adviser can help determine what applies to you.
Peace of mind. Maintenance-free living, helpful services, and access to a full continuum of on-site care — all in one community.
Nonprofit and locally led. As a nonprofit Life Plan Community, Vista Point reinvests every dollar back into the community, focusing on long-term stability rather than short-term profit.
A familiar coastal feel. For those who appreciate easy access to waterfront views, Vista Point offers a coastal Connecticut retirement with the only waterfront views of any Life Plan Community in southeastern Connecticut.
A long-standing commitment to inclusion. Founded in 1892, Fairview has served generations with a welcoming spirit, creating a place where people from all backgrounds feel at home.
If you’re exploring your Rhode Island senior living options, consider looking just across the state line. Vista Point offers Rhode Island retirees a modern approach to senior living — one that balances independence, community, thoughtful planning, and beautiful waterfront views all within easy reach of home.
