Free Television Options for Seniors in Independent Housing

August 8, 2023

Seniors who move into independent housing want all of the luxuries of a regular home, but may find themselves stuck on a fixed budget. With the average cost of cable services and streaming services on the rise, you will need to consider their options for home viewing entertainment.


Instead of cutting into their budget for television need, you can find a wide range of free options that will provide them with a lot of entertainment options. Check out how seniors in independent housing can take advantages of services and features to eliminate the extra costs of television.



Senior Housing Community Centers


In some cases, a housing resident may enjoy the company of others when watching movies and TV. Instead of paying for cable, look into housing locations with community centers. The centers will often feature a television that has cable networks or premium streaming services.


Along with free time to use the television, some locations may host movie nights where multiple residents can all enjoy a movie together. Access to local cable also means a person can watch local news and weather right in the community center. See the available options as you check out different properties.


Check out all of our available properties at Robert Cottingham Property Management Co. We will help you find the right location for all of your television needs along with your daily needs. We have a wide range of options and homes to choose from.
