What Is the Silver Tsunami?
The term “Silver Tsunami” refers to the rapid growth of the senior population, a nationwide trend that is especially prominent in Iowa. With one of the highest percentages of seniors in the US, Iowa is experiencing a significant demographic shift as more individuals aged 60+ make the state their home. This surge is reshaping communities, services, and senior living options across the state.
At Edencrest, we understand the unique needs of Iowa’s growing senior population. Our communities are designed to help residents thrive, offering a smooth transition to a vibrant lifestyle that feels like home.

Edencrest embraces this concept, making it easier for seniors to transition into a community without worrying about future relocations.
