The major factors were the size of the community. It is small enough to not be intimidating. The other huge factor for my brother is that it actually has a decent size group of older guys who eat together, watch sports events together and keep each other company.

I would recommend this community. The value for our loved one was there. The community has all retirees and a bus service that comes to the door of the residents.
The meals needs to be improved due to price.
