"I think I would prefer to go to The Continental Retirement Community. I like the price and the physical look of the facility, and its location is convenient. It's very close to where I currently live, so I wouldn't have to adjust to a new neighborhoo..."
"Brookdale Westlake Hills is on the top of our list. It had beautiful grounds. The staff was very friendly. Everyone knew each other's names. They had some larger units. We ended up picking it because they had two-bedroom units. Their amenities were n..."
"Atria at The Arboretum was beautiful. That was out of my parents' price range; I didn't think it was a good fit price-wise for them. The staff was great, the only drawback was the price. It seemed like a nice place...."

"I will be moving into The Reserve at Lake Austin. It's brand new. I'm not happy about the move, but as I compared it with the other place, I liked it because the room was long and slim and better arranged. It felt more open. A group was playing bingo..."
"Village on the Park Onion Creek was chosen because my mother has an outside entrance with a patio -- we can go to the patio and visit her, so we don't have to go into the building -- and also the price. The main thing was the accessibility to visit. ..."
"I will be moving into Buckner Villas. It had an apartment available at the time we were looking, whereas all the other places had a long wait. This place has a washer and dryer in the apartment rather than a communal one down the hallway that you sha..."
"Maravilla at The Domain was very nice. It's brand new, so it was much more modern, updated, and contemporary. The people seemed younger. When I got there, they had happy hour, and live music was playing. It was amazing. It felt like I was walking int..."
"I know Longhorn Village pretty well because my father was there before, so I feel very comfortable in that place. Their current project will not be finished until 2024, so that's about the right time (that I move in). If you're in independent living ..."
"Overture Arboretum 60+ Apartment Homes was very new. They have large apartments and they were redoing one of them when I was there. They painted the walls and took care of the floors. They have a great view of the trees and the grass on the outside. ..."
"I've moved into Everleigh Lakeline. It's a 55-plus community. From the first day that I walked on the tour, I fell in love with it. It's everything that I want and need to be around other people my age and not just be in my house and just in my bedro..."

"Everything is fine here at Cobblestone. You have to be 62 and your rent is calculated according to your income level. I like the place as it is sponsored by National Churches. They’re quite strict on what they expect from you. There is no discriminat..."
The staff at Solstice Senior Living at Austin was wonderful, probably the most gracious staff of the places we visited. Their rooms had like a little mini refrigerator and a sink, but no stove top...

I'm in Legacy Ranch at Dessau East. I chose this place for its location. It's a nice place, but the management isn't what I expected. The staff are not connected to the people or their needs. When...
