Why does the Northeast Heights hold so much of Albuquerque's assisted living?

The Heights combines the city's largest stock of 1960s-1990s single-story ranch houses, which convert well into small licensed homes, with the Uptown and Journal Center commercial areas where the larger assisted living buildings were built, and it sits between the Presbyterian and Lovelace hospital campuses on the east side.

For families that means plenty of choice inside a short drive, but many small homes look alike from the street. The license number, the licensed bed count and the HCA survey record are the fastest way to tell them apart before a tour.
