About
Burke Senior Center at 2113 Thomes Ave is one of those places that’s easy to drive by if you’re not looking for it, but locals know it’s a steady resource for Cheyenne’s older adults. While you’ll hear it described as offering both assisted and independent living, it actually functions more as a community hub than a traditional residential facility. The vibe is informal—think more activity center than medical campus.

Next steps to sign up for the Assisted Living
To move into assisted living, which offers personal care support along with meals, housekeeping, and activities, start by contacting facilities to check services, availability, and pricing. A doctor’s evaluation can help if there are concerns about mobility, memory, or complex care needs, but a referral isn’t usually required. Assisted living is primarily private pay or covered by long-term care insurance, so it’s important to compare based on staffing levels, services offered, and resident reviews. After sending messages and getting prequalified through our site, the next step is to schedule a facility tour.
Next steps to sign up for the Independent Living
If you’re looking for independent living for seniors who are still active but want amenities like meals, housekeeping, or social activities, you can contact communities directly without a doctor’s involvement. Independent living is almost always private pay, so compare costs, amenities, location, and lifestyle fit carefully. Our site lets you browse options, message communities, and schedule tours easily to find the best match. The next step after prequalification is to arrange a community tour and discuss lease terms.
