Five consecutive years of national recognition underscore a lasting commitment to exceptional senior care
For the fifth consecutive year, Belmont Village Senior Living has earned national recognition from U.S. News & World Report, with 23 communities across six states receiving Best Senior Living designations on the 2026 list of the nation’s best senior care providers. This sustained recognition reflects the company’s deep and lasting commitment to delivering exceptional care tailored to the needs of older adults.
“Being recognized by U.S. News & World Report is something our entire organization takes great pride in,” said Patricia Will, Founder and CEO of Belmont Village Senior Living. “From the very beginning, we have believed that our goal is not to be the biggest, but to be the best. This honor reflects the genuine care and dedication our teams bring to residents every single day, and the deep trust that residents and their families place in us. That trust is something we never take for granted and continue to grow.”
The Best Senior Living designation is earned through evaluations of communities based on resident and family satisfaction surveys. Communities were assessed on several key criteria, including resident and family member satisfaction with safety, care, community management, staff, value, and other essential services and amenities. This year, U.S. News analyzed more than 540,000 survey responses from residents and family members across more than 3,000 senior living communities nationwide.
“Choosing a senior living community is a significant life decision for older adults and their families. U.S. News’ Best Senior Living ratings provide a transparent, data-driven tool to help families identify the highest-quality care available,” said Ben Harder, managing editor and chief of health analysis at U.S. News. “We commend the communities that have earned this distinction, which reflects a deep commitment to resident well-being and exceptional service.”
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the number of Americans 65 and older is projected to grow from 58 million to 82 million by 2050, making the search for quality senior living one of the most pressing decisions families will face. The U.S. News Best Senior Living ratings help guide that search, providing independent, data-driven findings drawn directly from residents’ and their families’ experiences.
