NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., April 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Clearwater Living^®, a senior living company dedicated to elevating the aging experience through vibrant lifestyle amenities and compassionate care, today announced that nine of their senior living communities have received "Best" and "High Performing" recognitions from U.S. News & World Report as part of their annual Best Senior Living ratings.

"Being recognized by U.S. News across all three categories—independent living, assisted living and memory care—is something our entire team takes immense pride in," said Danielle Morgan, CEO of Clearwater Living. "These recognitions carry real weight for families facing one of the most important decisions of their lives, and we don't take that responsibility lightly. It is encouraging to see that our people-first approach is making a difference and resonating with our residents, and it inspires us to keep raising the bar."

U.S. News awards the designation of "Best Senior Living" only to those communities that satisfy U.S. News' rigorous, data-driven standard, reflecting the viewpoints from more than 450,000 consumer surveys. In order to participate in these rankings, residents of the senior living community, their family members or an appointed representative must participate in consumer satisfaction surveys.

Only the highest-rated communities in each care level earn a "Best" rating. U.S. News also recognizes outstanding performance in several key areas with a "High Performing" accolade.
