Drexel Horizon

Drexel Horizon is a senior living community built in 1998 at 3443 South 55th Avenue in Cicero, right in urban Chicago, Illinois, and it's designed for adults aged 62 and up who want independent living and a maintenance-free lifestyle, and it's got 72 one-bedroom apartments where neighbors know each other and treat each other like family, so people seem pretty proud to call it home, and the community does offer affordable retirement living where residents can enjoy their days without worrying about the small stuff, because there's a team of staff on-site and even living in to help 24 hours a day if anyone needs something or has an emergency, since the whole place and each apartment has an emergency response system integrated with the overall security system. Residents have access to a wide mix of services like independent living, assisted living for those who need a little help, memory care options, continuing care, nursing homes, even respite and home care choices, and care homes for folks who want different levels of support. It's a pet-friendly place with guest parking, so family and friends can visit without worries, and the building is set up for seniors, with amenities like a fitness program and exercise equipment if staying active is important, plus housekeeping and maintenance, private housekeeping if anyone prefers, parking options, and a nice outdoor garden for sunny days. Inside, you'll find lots to do with a TV and game lounge, a peaceful library for reading or just quiet time, sunlit patios with grills for those who enjoy being outdoors, and there's an arts and crafts room, a billiards room, cards and games tables, a general game room, many community outings, and space for social events and worship services, all designed to keep people connected and uplifted. Residents living in assisted living get three meals a day, plus snacks, all prepared by staff who know what they're doing in the kitchen, and everyone can take part in activities that work the mind, body, and spirit, whether that's joining a community program, doing arts and crafts, or taking in some indoor entertainment. The apartments all have a full kitchen, and there's a laundry room, storage units for the essentials, and transportation for those days when going out to appointments or errands is on the agenda. Drexel Horizon keeps detailed property reports that show all the features, site details, and utilities, so people can find out exactly what they'll get before deciding. Residents here tend to be active, with a lot of social and enrichment activities to choose from, and the general feeling is that people enjoy living surrounded by others who have interesting stories and plenty of life experience. It offers affordable living options and different floor plans, though the main setup is beautiful one-bedroom apartments, and overall, it's a place focused on supporting independence while offering help as needed.
