Sounds like a good idea.
There is also another proposal: residental home

I agree with Pawel. I'd prefer 'residential home' with residents=children
I think use of the word Orphanage has nearly disapeared in the UK because
the word means children have permanently lost their parents, but many of
children in 'children's homes' may only be there for a short period while

In the USA, the definition varies from state to state. For example, Tennessee
(where I live) does not have an official definition of town vs. city, and every
town or city is contained within a county. In Virginia, towns are contained
within counties, and subordinate to them; cities are indepen

In Tennessee, USA, where I live, the Interstates (motorways) both "parking
areas" (no services other than a place to park temporarily) and "rest areas"
