If you're comparing Brookdale Senior Living for a parent in Somerville, Middlesex County, here's an honest, local view. Brookdale Senior Living is the largest national senior-living operator, with several communities in the Greater Boston area. Boston Senior Advisor works differently, and the difference matters most in a market like Somerville.
How Boston Senior Advisor compares in Somerville
- Local, not a national call center: we cover Somerville and the rest of the metro firsthand, and we've walked the communities. Somerville is a dense, walkable Middlesex County city bordering Cambridge and Boston, with a diverse senior population and a mix of board and care homes and assisted living around Davis Square and Union Square.
- Your information isn't resold: you're matched to one to three options that fit, instead of handed to a dozen sales teams.
- We verify the certification: every referral is an EOEA-certified Assisted Living Residence or DPH-licensed nursing home with a clean record on the Mass.gov DPH Health Care Facility search.
- Free for families, and no contract: a community pays us only when you decide to move in, and never by charging you more to do it.
For Somerville families, the closest hospitals are Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), Mount Auburn Hospital, and somerville pricing generally runs near the metro median
