My mother-in-law moved to Northridge Village. The food is very good and they have a wide variety. It was well-prepared and very tasty. The building I think is seven years old. It's very clean, very well-maintained, and has big windows in the apartments, and nice big open hallways. There's a lot of activities to do. They have a concierge which is very helpful, a big dining room for independent living, and a separate one for assisted living and skilled nursing. There's something offered almost every day except Sundays, but they have people come in to do music. They have a full-time activity person who just arranges all kinds of things, whether it's adult coloring or games, puzzles, or outings, and people coming in to do travelogs. They've always got something going on, like parties and exercise classes. I'm very impressed with the staff. I think it's a good value, especially for the people who can participate in a lot of the activities.

Northridge Village was very nice. It's newer and I know people who live there who are happy with it. My parents liked it too, and so they put a deposit down to be on the waitlist. The facilities were very good and very nice, both indoors and outdoors. They had a chapel, a library, an exercise area where residents could exercise, as well as a garage attached or unattached. So, that's kind of a nice option.

Northridge Village is really nice and everybody has been helpful and friendly. The staff that I met with are nice people. My dad told me he played bingo there. They've also got a salon and a gym. It's a pretty nice building.

I have visited this facility several times since it opened. We attended the open house with my grandmother, and placed her on the wait list right away! We also attended the Easter Egg Hunt, where our 1yr old son had a GREAT time with the activities for the families to participate in(farm animals, egg hunt, painting, etc). Food at both events(by the facility staff) was excellent.

This facility is truly beautiful and is only surpassed by the staff. My dad has truly loved living here and I can’t picture him anywhere else. From the food to music in the park trips it has really made his move excellent.

Northridge Village is beautiful, clean, new, and well-appointed. The service we're getting is excellent so far. I ate there once, and I wouldn't say the food is excellent, but considering they have over 100 people, the food is pretty good. They have activities, a chapel, weekly manicures, exercise class, and so on. The staff is friendly and helpful. We had to call the front desk several times since we're new, and they were always professional. We've been very happy with them.

Northridge Village was very nice. The one- and two-bedrooms were a good size. We did not eat there, but they had a nice dining area. They had exercise classes, exercise equipment, games, puzzles, and a library. The residents seemed nice, mobile, and self-sufficient.

We had a nice tour and lunch at Northridge Village. My folks liked it. They had 22 rental apartments and 34 buy-in apartments that were all quite new. They had skilled nursing and an assisted living program that was quite nice. The apartment that my parents were looking at was 553 square feet. The staff was all quite nice. We liked them.

I visited Northridge Village. The staff was great. They went out of their way to help us. However, the rooms were all filled, and they had a long waiting list. The dining area was lovely. It was almost a brand-new building. The place was perfect and beautiful. If the prices had not been quite so high and if they had had rooms available, we would have moved there.
