Key Points

  • 18 residents here. 38.9% are 65+, about 7 seniors. Senior population drives demand for diverse Medicare plans.
  • Median age is 51.7 years. Age diversity means varied health needs. Original Medicare, Advantage, and Medigap all serve different profiles.
  • Income level affects Medicare costs. Check if IRMAA surcharges apply. Income above $106,000 (individual) or $212,000 (couple) triggers higher Part B and D premiums.
  • Lower-income residents may qualify for dual Medicare-Medicaid coverage. This adds dental, vision, hearing, and transportation benefits beyond Original Medicare.
