More than 90 percent of communities voted on as “Best” status by residents and family members

BALTIMORE, April 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Brightview Senior Living, a senior living owner, developer, and operator with 47 communities in eight states along the East Coast, has been recognized by U.S. News & World Report as a 2025 Best Senior Living recipient. Across the industry this year, fewer than half of the senior living communities evaluated by U.S. News earned a Best ranking — yet an impressive 93 percent of Brightview communities achieved this prestigious distinction. Brightview communities have ranked Best each year that they have partnered with U.S. News & World Reports on this annual list for all three categories: Independent Living, Assisted Living and Memory Care.

Now in its fourth year, the 2025 Best Senior Living ratings from U.S. News evaluated over 3,800 communities in the United States. Communities are evaluated on several criteria, including resident and family members’ satisfaction with safety, care, community management and staff, value and other services and amenities.

“At Brightview, we continue to drive the importance of maintaining happy, engaged associates which in turn, creates happy and engaged residents,” said Brightview Senior Living President and CEO Doug Dollenberg, Jr. “This remarkable recognition, awarded to over 90 percent of our communities, is a testament to the unwavering dedication of our associates. Their commitment to supporting not only our residents but also one another is what truly sets Brightview apart. Today and every day, we proudly celebrate the passion and hard work of our more than 6,000 associates who bring joy, vibrancy and a spirit of celebration to our communities.”

U.S. News awards the designation of “Best Senior Living” only to those communities that satisfy U.S. News’ rigorous, data-driven standard, reflecting the viewpoints from more than 450,000 consumer surveys. Only the highest-rated communities in each care level earned a “Best” rating.

“Choosing a senior living community is a big life decision for older adults and their loved ones. U.S. News’ Best Senior Living ratings offer families a data-driven search tool, providing transparent and comprehensive assessments of quality,” said Ben Harder, managing editor and chief of health analysis at U.S. News. “We commend the communities that have earned this distinction, reflecting their unwavering dedication to resident well-being and satisfaction.”

Brightview proudly operates in eight states, offering Independent Living, Assisted Living and Memory Care – Wellspring Village™– creating a personalized and hospitable approach to senior living. This accolade comes on the heels of Brightview’s inclusion on the annual Great Place To Work® and Fortune magazine’s 2025 Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For® list, representing the only senior living company on the list.
