Two communities in King County are among the top 10 senior-living facilities in the U.S. in recent rankings by Seniorly, an online marketplace which works with older adults on choosing places to live.

Aegis Living Greenwood in Seattle, one of 39 Aegis-owned communities in Washington and California, was named the best facility in America in Seniorly’s Best of Senior Living Awards report, and Island House in Mercer Island was named the eighth-best. Island House is among 39 senior communities in six states that are owned by MBK Senior Living.

Washington ranks No. 5 in the nation with 23 award-winning communities. They include Merrill Gardens in Auburn, Holiday Peninsula in Gig Harbor, Meridian at Stone Creek in Milton, Merrill Gardens at Renton Center, and Merrill Gardens-Tacoma and Merrill Gardens at Wright Park in Tacoma.

California led the nation with 65 Seniorly-cited facilities. Texas, Florida and Arizona ranked second, third and fourth, respectively.

Seniorly partnered with Skypoint, a research firm, to analyze resident and family reviews of cleanliness, dining, staffs, value, care services, and overall satisfaction to compile the rankings. To qualify, communities had to have no serious licensing violations in the last three years, and no negative media coverage in the last two years.
