Independent Living Communities in Columbus, IN

"I have been volunteering at Independence Village of Columbus since the summer of 2024, and it has been a truly rewarding experience. I’ve had the chance to give technical presentations on spam awareness and occasionally do nails for the residents, and every visit has been uplifting. The staff here are excellent—always friendly, welcoming, and willing to help. The community itself is clean, neat, and very well maintained. There are always a variety of activities to keep residents engaged, and it’s wonderful to see how happy and social everyone is. I’ve had many enjoyable conversations with residents while doing nails, and I love hearing the stories they share. The housekeeping staff are equally warm and attentive, and the dining experience is excellent, with a wide variety of thoughtfully prepared meals. Independence Village truly feels like home, both for residents and visitors. I highly recommend this community to anyone looking for a place where people are cared for, engaged, and genuinely happy."

"We toured Traditions of Columbus for our mom and I thought it was fabulous. We enjoyed the visit, it was nice. The facility was clean, they were very well taken care of, and very nice. The person who gave the tour was just wonderful, she still calls me just the other day, and any question we had, she was right there with the answer. She offered that if there's anything we need to ask, to just call her, she's very helpful. The residents were playing bingo and they were having a good time, they were in a big room. I wasn't able to eat there but their dining area looked great. They made a meal for somebody that was coming to get it, she showed it to me and it looked good. All the staff members that we ran into were wonderful, they were nice and helpful with anything."

"My sister moved to Astral at Franklin. We like its cleanliness and atmosphere; from its appearance, you wouldn't recognize it as a senior home. The staff is very accommodating. They have outings and various things like entertainment and music that come in. The apartments are well-kept."

"Overall, Grand Victorian of Greenwood was a great place. It looked good. It just wasn't quite what we were looking for. Everybody was nice. They showed us around and showed us everything. I couldn't ask for more. They had good amenities. There was nothing wrong with it. They helped me. Everything was great."

"We toured the Four Seasons. I liked it all on one level. Every apartment had a little outside patio. They had a little kitchen, so you could do your cooking if you wanted to cook. They had a washer and dryer. I liked that. In the little kitchen area, they had a separate little counter. The maintenance was fine. I like their eating area. We didn't eat there, but when we walked by, it had high ceilings. It looked like a nice restaurant kind of atmosphere. I thought it looked pleasant. The staff was very good."

"GreenTree at Westwood was very nice and updated. It just seemed like a really comfortable place. The staff was nice, able to answer questions and were helpful. The food was very good and you can eat in the dining area when you wanted to between the hours of 7 and 7. You could order something and they'd fix it."
