Wactor Garden sits at 712 Dr Martin Luther King Jr Dr N in Ahoskie, NC, and it's a low income-affordable senior housing community set up for folks aged 62 or older, with most residents living in apartment-style one-bedroom units that measure about 500 to 600 square feet, which have carpet and tile floors, bright living spaces, cozy bedrooms, sparkling bathrooms, and kitchens with refrigerator and electric range-you'll find that each apartment is handicapped accessible and that the property has a parking lot, laundry facilities, and access to a courtyard and outdoor patio areas, where you can enjoy lush gardens or take an easy walk on the paths, and there's space for pets if you have one. Wactor Garden Apartments also includes phases like Wactor Gardens Apartments Phase II, which may have a waiting list that's probably long or closed, since the property participates in the HUD Section 202 program and The Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC), with rent set according to a resident's income, so this setup allows for people with lower incomes to have housing that's affordable and regulated by the state, all managed by Metro Property Management.
This place serves as more than a retirement building, offering assisted living and Alzheimer's care, so services like healthcare management, incontinence and diabetic care, and non-ambulatory care are available from dedicated staff who work to give personalized support, and there are also transportation options and property-based rental assistance programs for those who need them. Social and lifestyle services change from one spot to another, but usually include group outings, on-site and offsite activities, devotional gatherings, fitness classes, educational workshops, and a strong culture of community engagement, with residents often gathering in cozy indoor common areas or the spacious community room, where people can visit or take part in hobbies and interests. Meals are offered with attention to different dietary needs, so you don't have to worry about preparing food if you don't want to, and monthly leases give flexibility to those looking for a simple and maintenance-free lifestyle, which is mostly what you'll get here.
Wactor Garden focuses on safe and affordable living, aiming to help people age in place with security and support, and while the amenities might vary between communities in the network, the main features like private rooms, utilities, friendly living environment, and the bright, modern feel of apartments built after 1990 remain steady, so people will find Wactor Garden suits the needs of many seniors who want affordable housing with standard care, a sense of community, and the kinds of services and spaces that most older adults are looking for in senior living.
