Senior Living Facilities

[Wounded Bear]

2. I live in Senior housing...

it is subsidized, so it is priced below market for housing in my area. Without it, I wouldn't be able to manage since I am on SS with no other sources of income. It is not an assisted living facility, you have to be ambulatory and self reliant to live here, though there are those who are wheelchair bound and many folks using walkers, etc.

I'm not much of a "joiner" so I don't participate in many of the group activities here, and haven't looked into use of the community car or van pool. I still drive, and while parking is sometimes tight, I don't wish to change that. Hell, I'm almost a functional hermit, so the shutdown hasn't affected me hugely. I know numerous neighbors to say hi to in the halls, and I even 'dated' a gal for a while, but I'm not socially active. Most of the group stuff is shut down right now, of course.

If I could afford it, I would seriously consider living elsewhere, but I am where I can survive.
