Insights

Senior Housing Industry Analyst

Brookdale reports strong occupancy growth with June reaching 80.5%, showing continued recovery momentum in senior housing.

Brookdale's June 2025 occupancy report reveals notable momentum in the company's operational recovery. The weighted average consolidated occupancy reached 80.5%, marking a substantial 230 basis points year-over-year increase and a 50 basis points sequential improvement. This acceleration is particularly significant as it reflects both increased move-in activity and reduced move-out rates—a dual positive signal for the senior housing sector.

The month-end consolidated occupancy of 82.2% (up 70 basis points sequentially) indicates strengthening demand trends continuing into mid-2025. Same community metrics, which provide a clearer view of organic performance by excluding portfolio changes, showed similar strength with 81.1% weighted average occupancy (up 220 basis points year-over-year).

Quarterly performance also demonstrates sustained improvement, with Q2 2025 weighted average consolidated occupancy at 80.1%—up 200 basis points year-over-year and 80 basis points sequentially from Q1. For Brookdale, with approximately 58,000 units across 645 communities, each percentage point of occupancy represents significant incremental revenue potential with minimal additional costs, likely driving substantial margin expansion as occupancy continues climbing toward pre-pandemic levels.

The occupancy growth trajectory suggests Brookdale is effectively executing its operational strategy while benefiting from demographic tailwinds in the senior housing market. With month-end occupancy consistently outpacing weighted monthly averages, the company appears positioned to carry positive momentum into subsequent periods.
