Aging with intention: Why more seniors are turning to Vi at Aventura

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

A “silver tsunami” has swept the nation, and no corner of the country is experiencing this wave quite like South Florida. As America experiences an unprecedented aging boom, with 10,000 Americans turning 70 every day, seniors and their families are making decisions about where and how they want to age earlier and more intentionally than ever before.

More seniors are asking the same questions: Why now? And just as importantly: Why Vi at Aventura? A Life Plan Community, Vi at Aventura blends independence, connection and long-term peace of mind. Residents enjoy resort-style living supported by on-site assisted living, skilled nursing, memory support and rehabilitation, if and when the need arises.

“The answer to ‘Why now, why Vi?’ often comes down to quality of life,” said Ryan Knisely, executive sales director at Vi at Aventura. “People walk through our doors and realize they don’t have to choose between independence and support. They can have both, and they can have it when it matters most.” For many new residents, the decision to move is prompted not by crisis, but by foresight. Seniors who have spent decades in their longtime homes are increasingly choosing to relocate while they are still active, engaged, and able to take advantage of everything a Life Plan Community offers. Often encouraged by adult children and influenced by proximity to family, they recognize the value of making a move on their own terms, before it becomes necessary rather than optional.

Lifestyle plays a significant role in that decision. At Vi at Aventura, residents enjoy amenities such as chef-driven dining, resident-led clubs, concierge services, fitness and wellness programs, lectures, and cultural events — creating an environment that supports both independence and connection, without the burdens of home maintenance or uncertainty about future care.

Judy and Joel Feinman moved from North Miami Beach four months ago and felt the community’s warmth immediately. “We are thrilled with the Vi,” Judy said. “We love the people, the staff and the energy. Our apartment floor even feels like our own little wing.” She said the combination of comfortable space and the reassurance of on-site healthcare made their decision even easier. The couple stays active, hosting friends in their apartment and spending time in the game room, at the Men’s Club and at dinner with new friends.

As the “silver tsunami” continues to reshape the region, Vi at Aventura is positioning itself as a community where seniors don’t just live, they thrive.
