Senior Suites of Jefferson Park sits in the Jefferson Park neighborhood at 5400 N Northwest Hwy in Chicago, close to parks, restaurants, and the I-90 corridor, and offers affordable senior living for those 62 and better with 81 studio and one-bedroom apartment homes, all with full kitchens, safety features like secured entry, grab bars, emergency pull cords, and wheelchair accessible showers, so residents have a comfortable and secure place to live without needing to pay big upfront fees or worry about complicated leases, and the rent depends on income and apartment availability. Residents enjoy complimentary utilities, laundry rooms, individually controlled heating and cooling, planned housekeeping, and on-site maintenance, with parking available on a wait list, plus the community welcomes pets and provides easy wheelchair access throughout the building. There are large indoor and outdoor community areas where residents can take part in scheduled social, devotional, and educational events, movies, card games, outings, and even activity programs focused on wellness, hobbies, and interests, so folks find plenty of chances to mingle or enjoy quiet moments like reading in the library or relaxing in outdoor spaces. Residents can buy one freshly made hot meal per day at a low cost if they want, or cook with a full-sized refrigerator, range, and oven in their apartment, and the weekly grocery shuttle helps everyone stock up without worry. Staff stay on-site around the clock for support and to do daily safety checks, and an emergency call system is always available, plus medical services like nurse on call, doctor on call, homecare, podiatrist, and dentist visits are offered right in the building. Physical, occupational, and speech therapy, as well as hospice and respite care, help those who need more support without moving out, and services like beauty and barber care, regular transportation, and devotional events both on and offsite help make life easier. The building has a no smoking policy inside, accepts both male and female residents, supports independence and aging in place, offers legal protections for LGBTQ residents and others under federal law, and participates with partnerships offering relocation help and veteran benefits help, making it a long-standing option for seniors wanting an affordable, active lifestyle in Chicago, with a high rating from residents and basic comforts covered for daily life.
Senior Suites of Jefferson Park
5400 N Northwest Hwy, Chicago, IL, 60630- Independent living
- Assisted living
Caring staff, community; small units
I toured and decided this is a good place - the staff are outstanding (Jessica, Leron and others were kind, professional and helpful) and the community is very clean, safe and active. Apartments are generally nice and well-kept but often small or dated; laundry on every floor, many activities, grocery delivery and nearby transit are big pluses. Parking/traffic is a downside and pet policy is strict (one cat), and meals aren't included (dining available for a fee). There were a few management/billing and occasional maintenance issues to be aware of, and the place can have a waitlist. Overall I recommend it for the caring staff, amenities and sense of community, if you can live with parking and smaller units.
