Almost no one moves to a "group home" because of age-related mobility or cognitive issues.
Hm, maybe that is not so visible as a facility, but certainly lots of fitter seniors join to share a flat, with an individual room for each of them, privately organised among them. I also read about experiments with Alzheimer patients to supervise a small group of them in a regular apartment in contrast to a nursing home.
I no longer see any facility called retirement home. I used to, and I think it was something that was a little bit like AL but less care, before the state set standards of what could be provided and what training was needed for people to do it.
There seems to be similar standardisation in Germany, where a nursing cost insurance is now mandatory, so also how that money is spent is being regulated.
