ATLANTA, May 21, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Canterbury Court has been recognized by U.S. News & World Report as a 2026 Best Independent Living Community.
Now in its fifth year, the 2026 Best Senior Living ratings from U.S. News evaluated more than 3,000 communities across the United States. 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 recognition means so much to us," says Debi McNeil, president and CEO of Canterbury Court. "Our entire team is dedicated to making sure our residents are at the center of everything that we do, and the reason our community exists – this award validates that we are doing exactly that."
U.S. News awards the designation of Best Senior Living only to those communities that meet its objective, data-driven standards, reflecting the feedback of hundreds of thousands of consumers nationwide. The highest-rated communities in each care level earned a Best Senior Living rating.
In addition to the primary rating, Canterbury Court was recognized as a "Feels Like Home" community. This accolade is awarded only to communities that scored in the top 25% of evaluated 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.
