Ebenezer is proud to share that 31 of our communities have been recognized in the prestigious 2025 U.S. News & World Report's Best Senior Living ratings. This honor reflects our ongoing commitment to providing high-quality, person-centered care and creating supportive environments for Ebenezer residents.
According to data from U.S. News & World Report, there are 927 senior living communities in Minnesota. U.S. News & World Report has rated 39 of these communities as best senior living communities based on resident and family member satisfaction with safety, value, caregiving, food and dining, and more. It's impressive to note that 29 of the 39 are Ebenezer-owned or managed!
The U.S. News & World Report ratings are based on feedback from nearly 450,000 senior living residents and their families, evaluating crucial aspects of senior living such as quality of care, dining, activities, and overall satisfaction. More than 3,800 senior living communities were evaluated, and fewer than half earned the coveted “Best” status. This year, Ebenezer communities saw an impressive 48% increase in the number of award-winning communities from 2023 to 2025.
“We are incredibly proud of the recognition our communities have received,” said Brett K. Anderson, President and CEO of Ebenezer. “This achievement is a testament to the dedication of our staff, the constant focus on improving resident satisfaction, and our commitment to meeting the diverse needs of older adults. Having more than half of Ebenezer communities acknowledged is a true reflection of the exceptional care we provide.”
New in 2025, U.S. News & World Report has introduced accolades for "High-Performing" communities in key areas such as Caregiving, Food & Dining, and Activities & Enrichment. These awards recognize communities that score in the top 25% in each category, further highlighting Ebenezer's dedication to enhancing the overall senior living experience.
