I went to Connect55+ Independence and met with the manager, Amy. She was just very enjoyable and very friendly. She gave me a walk-through of the one and two-bedroom apartments, but I believe the one-bedroom was already taken. For the price, it is well worth it. They have a gym. It's very independent. If you're in good health and everything, it is a great place to live. I looked at the one-bedrooms and they were pretty spacious. They have a nice closet and liked that they have a separate laundry in the apartments. The kitchens were pretty modern. I was just impressed with the whole thing. It was very clean and very neat. To me, parking is everything. I'm 67 and I'm very active. I come and go, so the parking lot has to be pretty well-lit, and I would feel very safe living there.

Amanda. Josh and Chris are working very hard on improvements. We have a few residents doing things to help. We now have a wall of honor for our great veterans. It is very quiet here, overall clean and repairs to parking lot in progress. I think anyone should look at this complex.

It is very clean, beautiful, and has a very friendly atmosphere. The staff is very helpful and willing to accommodate issues. They have a dining area, but they don't provide food. They had a billiard room, exercise room, and library. My parents-in-law moved in last May.

I just moved in and really love it here. The manager is very nice and really helped me out. I would definitely recommend especially since they allow pets.
