The 10 Best Independent Living Facilities in Dekalb County, GA

I did a tour of Arbor Terrace Hamilton Mill. I would describe it as modern because it's only a few years old. It's quiet and it's well-staffed. The person who gave me the tour is fabulous, Barbara is her name. When I first visited without my mom, she...

I toured The Legacy at Walton Kennesaw Mountain. The attendant was friendly and had a deep knowledge of what she was doing. The environment was quiet and neat. It's a decent place. It's a beautiful place. There's a place like a garden where you can s...

I love Alta Ridenour. It's excellent and I like the way it's set up. It looks like a little town or village that's closed off by itself. The person who assisted me during my visit is Leslie, who's very knowledgeable about the community and never hesi...

I stayed at Galleria Manor senior apartments for six years. I'd recommend it. I would be right there today but I had to relocate. I loved it. It was excellent. It's an independent apartment. If you can't take care of yourself or have a caregiver, you...

My 90-year-old dad has lived in independent living at Sterling for almost 10 yrs. He recently commented how friendly everyone at Sterling is, and how helpful they are, "even when the area where they are helping is not even their responsibility.” What...

I found something that I like, and it was Azalea Estates of Fayetteville and that probably would be the one I'll go with when I'm ready to move. It was very nice. I like it. The manager was very, very nice and super good, I like her. I was very happy...

I toured. It was very appealing from the beginning, from the outside it was very beautiful. The young lady was nice and was expecting me. I did talk to two residents who just happened to be sitting in the cafeteria, and who volunteered to tell me tha...

I really enjoy what The Retreat at Loganville has to offer. It allows for each patient to live in their own space. They have their own cottage or villa and still get rides for lunch every day. They still have the community feel of activities and thin...

My mom will move into Overture Buckhead South 55+ Apartment on Saturday. It was a nice independent living facility. The people are nice. The rooms are very nice. It has an onsite gym and an onsite pool. It was close to where I was going to be staying...

My impression of Big Bethel was that it was a nice place with nice people. I have only been here for a couple of weeks and I haven’t tried the food but upon speaking to neighbors, they think its fine. The staff is very nice and very welcoming. It’s v...

Sweetwater Terraces was a very nice and well-kept gated community. All the other places cost a lot more, but this one includes everything, so it's what I was looking for. It also offers tax credits and that was an incentive for me. The staff was very...

The Retreat at Conyers was very spacious. It had lots of different activities and things like that. However, I did not love the fact that the independent living side was a pretty far walking distance to all the amenities, and they didn't necessarily ...

I toured Delmar Gardens of Gwinnett. They are all in one. They're a one-stop shop. I love that because I don't have to transition my mom if I were to put her there in multiple places. She can stay there and age. The staff was very friendly, outgoing,...

I moved into The Palms of Lake Spivey, and it's great and quiet. Everybody here is happy, and the food is great and adequate. The room is huge, and I have a one-bedroom, a living room, and a full kitchen. Everything in the kitchen is brand new, like ...
