Review for Independence Village of Oxford
It's it's wonderful, it's expensive. Make sure you are getting your money's worth. Watch your finances and what they take out, each extra thing that they do for you will cost. But it's a really nice place if you can afford it.

Safe, friendly, comfortable living facility
After making a call to A Place For Mom, I started receiving numerous calls from facilities in the area I was interested in. However, the one that sounded the most like what I was looking for was Independence Village of Oxford. I responded to a text message invitation to take a tour. The staff member who greeted me and took me on the tour was very friendly and knowledgeable. I was immediately impressed with the roominess of the apartments and the decor in the common areas. The dining experience and opportunities for daily activities are excellent. I highly recommend this beautiful facility located in northern Oakland County.
