Acworth calls itself "The Lake City," set along Lake Acworth and Lake Allatoona in the foothills of the North Georgia mountains. Cobb County's North Cobb Senior Center is right in town on South Main Street, 770-975-7740. It is a good fit for a parent who still gets around independently, since Cobb's centers are not adult day programs. Cobb County Senior Services, 770-528-5355, can talk you through transportation, meals and in-home help, and Empowerline, the Atlanta Regional Commission's free aging line, is at 404-463-3333. For hospital care, Wellstar Kennestone is in Marietta.

Arbor Terrace Acworth sits at the entrance to historic downtown Acworth on South Main Street, with assisted living and a secured memory care neighborhood called Evergreen. There's also a middle option, Bridges, for residents in the early stages of memory loss who want more structure than assisted living but aren't ready for full memory care. It's run by The Arbor Company, and draws families from Acworth, Kennesaw, Woodstock and west Cobb.
Not enough communities in Acworth publish a starting price for a median to mean anything yet — it takes 5. We’d rather say that than average two numbers and call it a market rate.
