Where in Colorado Springs is most of the assisted living?
By beds, Westside, Old Colorado City & Broadmoor leads with 784; by number of licenses, Knob Hill, Southeast & the Airport leads with 17, because many of its residences are small converted homes rather than large buildings.
Small homes and large communities hold the same license but feel very different, and small homes are more often Medicaid-certified. The full roster sorts every residence by size, citations and occurrence reports.
