Woodhaven Senior Residences sits on Rio Linda Boulevard in Sacramento, and the place has gone through some recent renovations to make things more comfortable for its senior residents, and when you walk in you'll see there are studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, with options for both affordable and market-rate rent, plus some of the units are set aside for households earning 50% or less of the Area Median Income, with a rent cap that matches local limits or sometimes goes even lower, while other apartments require full rent and aren't subsidized, so there are different choices for various budgets. The John Stewart Company manages the property and they seem to put a lot of focus on offering a safe and welcoming environment, and you'll see plenty of special features for seniors like accessible facilities, outdoor gardens for fresh air and quiet walks, and easy-to-manage layouts that make it simple to get around.

Meals are prepared by chefs and meal planners, with an effort to use quality ingredients that taste good, and residents often gather in the dining areas, which helps people socialize at their own pace without pressure. There are plenty of organized social activities, and family members are encouraged to be involved, since there are programs for family outreach and education, and guest services so loved ones can visit with ease. Some units have efficiency layouts, and all apartments make life manageable for seniors, which can mean a lot to folks who don't want to feel overwhelmed by a big space.
