Independence Village is like a luxury hotel but a warm caring atmosphere by all the staff spilling over to the residences! The food is marvelous and healthy! They are pet friendly. I've heard many residents, me being one, say they would not live here if they couldn't bring their pet. I'm so happy I moved here!

Staff was extremely helpful even during her final days there. They treat the tenants as family. Always helping with anything at any time. So unlike many service providers no days.

After taking a tour and seeing the rooms and activities, I can understand the smiles on the residents faces! [Name Removed], the executive director, is always willing to go the extra mile for her residents. I have seen the staff walking the resident’s dogs on bad weather days, hooking up their televisions, and keeping the residents engaged in activities. Speaking of activities there is so much for them to do, exercise class, crafting, and happy hour to name a few. They have regular special outings the residents can sign up for, like touring the glass blowing store in East Jordan. They have an amazing maintenance man,[Name Removed]who treats the folks there like family! Anytime there is an issue, [Name Removed] is quick to get it fixed no matter how big or small. It is difficult to trust a place for an elderly family member, but Independence Village has my vote 100%

Met with [Name Removed] who handles the room occupancy, also met with [Name Removed] the Executive director, who was very informative. I also got to see [Name Removed] the maintenance supervisor doing his best to keep things running smoothly! I would have no problem leaving my Father in a place like this should the need arise to, it is a gorgeous place. Also saw lots of activities going on!
