WEST BRANDYWINE, PA — Freedom Village at Brandywine’s management company, LCS, has once again claimed the top spot in J.D. Power’s annual U.S. Senior Living Satisfaction Study, marking its seventh consecutive year as the nation’s highest-ranked provider for Independent Living.
The 2025 study placed LCS at #1 not only overall, but across all six core measures of resident satisfaction — Dining, Community Building and Grounds, Resident Apartments and Living Units, Price Paid for Services, Community Staff, and Resident Activities. No other company has achieved a streak of this length since the survey’s inception, making LCS the most-awarded independent senior living operator in the history of the J.D. Power study.
The ranking reflects survey responses from residents across independent living, assisted living, and memory care communities nationwide, capturing how seniors evaluate comfort, service, amenities, and the overall living experience.
Chris Bird, CEO of LCS, said the recognition underscores the trust residents place in the company’s communities and the daily work of employees. “Earning a J.D. Power award for the seventh consecutive year is a powerful testament to the trust our residents place in us and the exceptional commitment our teams bring to their communities every day,” Bird said. “Our residents’ confidence in the experience and care we provide is the highest honor we can receive, and we are grateful for their continued support.”
LCS manages more than 130 senior living communities across the United States, including delivering its Signature Experiences program — a suite of hospitality, engagement, and care standards designed to improve quality of life for older adults.
Freedom Village at Brandywine, one of the communities under LCS management, has long been considered a leading independent living destination in Chester County. The latest national ranking further elevates its profile, positioning LCS as a consistently top-performing operator in a competitive and rapidly growing sector.
The J.D. Power 2025 U.S. Senior Living Satisfaction Study is based on survey responses from senior living residents nationwide, offering one of the most comprehensive snapshots of resident sentiment in the industry.
