Hennepin County is Minnesota's most populous county, with an estimated 1,284,784 residents as of mid-2025 according to the U.S. Census Bureau, and it includes Minneapolis along with most of the western and southern suburbs covered by this site. About 17.1% of county residents are 65 or older per the Census Bureau's most recent estimate, and the county's decades of urban and suburban development have produced the deepest supply of senior housing options in the metro, from historic Minneapolis apartment conversions to newer suburban campuses in Edina, Minnetonka, and Maple Grove.

Which agencies cover Hennepin County

  • Area Agency on Aging: Trellis (formerly the Metropolitan Area Agency on Aging) -- one regional agency covers the entire seven-county Twin Cities metro, including this county.
  • Long-Term Care Ombudsman: Minnesota Office of Ombudsman for Long-Term Care, 1-800-657-3591 -- a single statewide office, not split by region.

Questions families ask

What senior care options exist in Hennepin County?

Hennepin County, home to Minneapolis, Bloomington, Edina, Minnetonka, Eden Prairie, Plymouth, Maple Grove, and St. Louis Park, has the metro's widest concentration of licensed assisted living and memory care communities, anchored by the Abbott Northwestern (Allina Health) and University of Minnesota Medical Center (M Health Fairview) hospital systems. All licensing, Medicaid waiver, and ombudsman resources described for the metro apply the same way in Hennepin County as elsewhere, since Minnesota regulates and funds these programs at the state level.

What senior care options exist in Ramsey County?

Ramsey County, anchored by St. Paul, Minnesota's state capital, is served by Regions Hospital (HealthPartners) and is home to the headquarters of the Minnesota Office of Ombudsman for Long-Term Care. Senior housing in Ramsey County, including Roseville and White Bear Lake, often includes communities in converted historic buildings alongside newer construction along transit corridors.

What senior care options exist in Dakota County?

Dakota County's fast-growing southern suburbs — Eagan, Burnsville, and Apple Valley — form the county's highest concentration of assisted living and memory care communities. Dakota County residents access the same Trellis Area Agency on Aging, Senior LinkAge Line, MAARC, and MDH licensing verification tools available across the entire seven-county metro.

What senior care options exist in Anoka County?

Anoka County's north metro suburbs, including Blaine and Coon Rapids, are served by the same statewide MDH licensing framework, MAARC abuse-reporting line, and Trellis Area Agency on Aging as the rest of the Twin Cities metro — there is no separate north-metro-specific regulatory or funding structure.

What senior care options exist in Washington County?

Washington County, including Woodbury and Stillwater along the St. Croix River valley, has the metro's highest share of residents age 65+ at 18.8% — meaning it is, proportionally, the fastest-aging of the seven Twin Cities metro counties. It uses the same statewide Trellis, Senior LinkAge Line, MDH licensing, and MAARC resources as the rest of the metro.
