Independent Living Communities in Carson, CA

"It has been a positive experience with Artesia Christian Home for the most part. My mom's room is pretty nice. It's a 1-bedroom with a full bath and kitchenette. The facility is also pretty nice and above average. They have a lot of activities for the residents, and the food is pretty good. The place is really clean and it's been kept up really well. They have nice furniture in the lounging areas."

"We went to Westmont of Cypress. It was gorgeous. It's a brand-new community. One thing that I would have liked better is even though it was a shared room, it would have more of an individual bedroom, but it was way more expensive. What I didn't like also was the staff didn't seem as engaged. This was in the memory care section, and they didn't have a lot of room for Mom to walk around. She loves to go for walks and there was just a patio, so I didn't think that was appropriate, and there was a waiting list to get into the shared room. The person who took us on the tour was nice, but I was able to witness their activities director and she just seemed bored. They were doing a history lesson where they were talking about this day in history. She didn't seem all that engaging, like when I compared her to the activities director at the other place who's very excited to be with the residents. This person, it just seems like it's a job. She didn't care that much. They said they took them on walks but it's all street parking lot, so I don't know where they take them on walks."

"The staff is second to none. The are so kind and go the extra mile to ensure you feel at home here. That is the bottom line: this is really home, not an institution. The grounds are spectacular! It’s like living in a park. Also, the food is cooked here, not brought in like some facilities. The cooks will make you a custom meal if what is on the menu does sound good that day. I would give this 6 stars if I could!"

"Westmont Culver City is very nice and it's brand new. My mother has a one-bedroom, one-bath, and it's nice. I highly recommend it. The staff is great. They have a gym, chair aerobics for everybody, a movie theater, a restaurant, a courtyard, front and back entrances, private elevators, you have to use the key to get in, and front desk staff. She doesn't like the food that much."

"Sakura Gardens of Los Angeles was very clean and the staff was very helpful. It's gated so it's very safe. I saw the dining hall and then a one-bedroom. It was nice. We are looking for a bilingual or more of a Japanese-speaking facility, and this person helped me and showed me around. She was fully bilingual. So, that would have been good for my friend. It was a good experience."

"Everything at Palm Court was excellent. The apartments were beautiful. They had a movie theater, a fitness room, arts and crafts room, and all kinds of activities, like a walking club and all kinds of other things. "

"I toured with my mother and the rooms were nice and clean. It was a big facility with lots of room to walk on the grounds and also a lot of social activities. I also liked that there is a medical clinic which allows residents to have nearby care if needed. The location was a little further than desired, but the residents all seemed to be content here."

"City View was nice and beautiful, but right now I can’t afford it. The staff who gave us the tour was great and very nice. I would love for my mom to stay there. "

"I should have brought my mother here a long time ago. We tried the more corporate places, but my mother feels happier here. The care is unmeasureable and the staff is great to work with. I am able to be her son, and enjoy our time, and not her doctor or medication nurse. "

"I live here in Independent Living and I love it. I moved here from another, smaller, senior community one year after my wife passed because this one has more residents and more chances for me to make friends. I immediately asked and was encouraged by senior staff to facillitate two mentally challenging discussion groups every week for people with like interests. They are still going strong and many of us have become good friends. I can't praise the staff enough for consistently providing excellent meals, activity opportunities, and overall cleanliness. I also can't praise my fellow residents enough; we have been successful enough in life (I retired 26 years ago as a high school principal.) to be able to enjoy this quality of life with our peers."

"The rooms were very nice. The staff was also very nice. The food was OK. The residents seemed active and involved, and there were some activities going on when I visited Belmont Village Hollywood Heights. "

"The food that I had at Walnut Village was incredible. I really felt like it was fine dining at a restaurant. The staff said this is normally what is served. She also said they based their food on points. You could spend your points for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, or you don't have to use them at all, and you can use them for your guests. Their food was incredible. The staff said that this is a formal sit-down dining room, and you would come dressed nicely here. The only drawback with Walnut Village is that it sits in the middle of where Disneyland is. Other than that, they have valet parking, and it was beautiful inside. Other than that traffic, it was totally a 10. Everything was new, first-class, and clean. The only reservation I have is the location. They have all kinds of activities. They have a beautiful indoor pool, a beautiful area to exercise with lots of exercise equipments, a beautiful courtyard, a beautiful library, and a game room. It was just gorgeous."
