Abundant natural beauty combined with the amenities of a top global city makes Washington a desirable option for retirees.

Approximately 15.9% of Washington’s overall population of slightly more than 7.7 million citizens are those aged 65 and over.
Housing costs are above the national average. The average monthly cost of assisted living facilities in Washington is $6,000; however, the state’s Medicaid program offers three waivers to help seniors pay for the costs associated with assisted living.
