They say every new beginning comes from some other beginning’s end. And for many people, that means saying goodbye to tedious home maintenance projects and hello to a fresh start in a new home. Retiring in Delaware as a member of Upside is unlike the typical independent senior living communities you might be familiar with. Let’s explore why Upside is a refreshing alternative to run-of-the-mill senior living apartments in Delaware.
The first thing you’ll notice about our selection of apartments in Delaware is that they aren’t located in typical 55+ communities. Instead, you’ll find Upside apartments intermingled throughout the best buildings in Wilmington in desirable neighborhoods you’ll love. With a wide variety of floorplans and sizes, you’ll have fun browsing our selection of bespoke senior living apartments in Delaware to find the perfect space for your lifestyle.
But there’s more to your Upside membership than an exclusive catalog of great apartments. For example, members get a personal Upside Manager who makes life easier. Think of your Upside Manager as a friend who knows your personality, your preferences, and your favorite things to do. One call to your Upside Manager can eliminate any anxiety or stress you might feel about taking advantage of the restaurants, performance spaces, shops, or other attractions in Delaware. Your Upside Manager is like a friendly concierge you can call anytime for anything.
With Upside+ Powered by TheKey, seniors live in their own apartment in a luxury building, not a sterile facility. But they still have access to support and living assistance from certified on-site care professionals. It’s the perfect solution for seniors who want care and community without the stigma or cost of senior living facilities—and with much more flexibility.
So, what is independent living in Delaware really like? This small Mid-Atlantic U.S. state features beaches and sand dunes along the Atlantic as well as the freshwater Delaware River. With a fantastic park system full of gorgeous sights to discover, practically every moment is worth sharing with your friends and family. Best of all, our senior living apartments in Wilmington make retiring in Delaware fun and accessible.
Some of the top area attractions include the Brandywine River Museum of Art which features American art inside a building that was once a mill in the 1800s. Other attractions include Rockwood Park & Museum, Riverfront Wilmington, and the Delaware Art Museum. Factor in the one-of-a-kind shopping experiences, yummy restaurants, and local craft breweries, and you’ll understand what makes independent living in Wilmington so special.
In addition to the great local attractions and resources, retiring in Delaware also comes with increased spending power. That’s because Delaware does not charge state or local sales tax nor is there a tax on your Social Security Benefits. Not to mention, Delaware offers hefty exclusions on pension income for people over 60.
Retiring in Delaware as an Upside member is all about freedom to explore your passions, discover new treasures, and enjoy a more carefree lifestyle without annoying home maintenance or big-ticket expenses to worry about. There are no hidden fees to surprise you, just the fun, flexible living options you want in a neighborhood that feels like home. Like we said, this isn’t your typical 55+ community in Delaware!
