America is getting older, and the need for home care is growing right along with it. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, every baby boomer will be 65 or older by 2030, and by 2029, older adults are projected to outnumber children in the U.S. for the first time in history.
At the same time, most seniors would much rather stay in their own homes than move into a facility. Non-medical home care makes that possible, helping with everyday tasks like meal preparation, light housekeeping, personal care, transportation, and companionship.
For families, it brings peace of mind. For franchise owners, it’s a chance to build a business around a service that communities genuinely need. That’s why so many people exploring elderly care franchise opportunities are drawn to in-home care. It’s meaningful work with steady, long-term demand.
Touching Hearts at Home is actively growing, with senior care franchise territories open in most states. Some markets are considered “hot markets,” where we’re especially focused on expansion because of strong senior population growth and demand for in-home care. Others are available but may have more limited openings. Use the table below to see where territories are currently available.Â

A home care franchise territory is the geographic area where you can operate your Touching Hearts at Home business. It’s where you’ll market your services, build relationships with referral sources, and send caregivers to support clients in their homes.Â
Touching Hearts territories are defined by county and/or zip code. Instead of basing territory size on total population, we size each territory based on the number of seniors who live there. As a general guideline, the FDD calls for a territory to include at least 20,000 adults age 65 or older. We also:

adults age 65 or older in each territory, sized by seniors rather than total population.
Full territory terms are outlined in the Franchise Disclosure Document and the Franchise Agreement.
Choosing a territory is a collaborative process. We combine your preferences and local knowledge with our experience and demographic software to find the best fit.
When evaluating a territory, we look at factors like:




Some of our most promising markets are in states with large or fast-growing senior populations. Here are a few hot markets where we’re actively looking for owners
Hot Market
Home Care Franchise Territories in Arizona
Arizona has long been a favorite for retirees, thanks to its warm climate and popular retirement communities. Many older adults who settle there want to stay independent as they age, which creates strong demand for in-home support. Home care franchise territories in Arizona offer owners the chance to serve a large, active senior community in a fast-growing state.
Hot Market
Home Care Franchise Territories in Florida
Florida has one of the largest senior populations in the country. With so many retirees calling the Sunshine State home, families are looking for trusted, compassionate caregivers to help their loved ones age in place. Florida’s established retirement communities and healthcare networks make it a natural fit for a non-medical home care business.
Hot Market
Home Care Franchise Territories in Texas
Texas is one of the fastest-growing states in the country, and its senior population is growing too. From major metro areas to growing suburban communities, there’s rising demand for reliable in-home care. Its size and diversity offer plenty of opportunities to find a territory that fits your goals.
Touching Hearts at Home started in 1996, when Renae Peterson began providing professional caregiving services. In 2006, Renae and her sons, Ryan and Andrew Lungstrom, launched the franchise brand. Today, the company is still family-led, and that personal, caring approach runs through everything we do. Learn more about Touching Hearts at Home and our story.
