My Home Inc., also known as My Home ALF, Inc., sits on a quiet street in North Miami where a single-level house has been fully set up and permitted as a small group senior living facility, and folks like the Walters family have owned and run it for about twenty years, which you can tell from little things like the place having been kept in solid shape since it was first built in 1953, with CBS block walls, central heat and air, a shingle roof, and tile flooring that runs throughout the 2,684 square feet, so there's not much worry about stairs since everything's on one floor and all the halls, doors, and the kitchen remain wide enough for wheelchairs and walkers to get around. Four bedrooms and two accessible full bathrooms allow a small group of older adults to live kind of like family, with help available for dressing, bathing, grooming, medication, and getting meals on time, including special diets for allergies and diabetes when needed, since the staff here know every resident by name, thanks to the small size. There's a living area for movie nights, puzzles, arts and crafts, music, church services, and walking paths outside so residents can stretch their legs and spend time in the gardens, though most of the yard is driveway and open, without a pool or big landscaping features, but there are garden spots to sit and watch the day go by.
The house stands in a residential neighborhood with a mix of white and Hispanic households and a median local income of about $38,639, and since the place is close to bus lines and public transport, it's easy enough for residents to get out, while the team also offers rides to doctor's visits, stores, or community events. The owners coordinate medical appointments and personal care with health workers as needed, and with staff like President Michael B Walters and Vice President Emily E Walters running things, the atmosphere leans toward warm and attentive, where every resident tends to get a care plan built around their needs and routines. Residents' rooms come furnished, but you can always bring personal belongings to make the space familiar, and each room has access to a phone as well as emergency alert systems, plus central heating and cooling for comfort. Meals are served in a shared dining room, where residents gather to eat together, and staff do the housekeeping, laundry, and keep the common areas clean, so residents don't have to worry about chores.
The place is powered in part by solar, which keeps the electric bills pretty low-less than fifty dollars a month on average. It has public city water and sewer services, a laundry room with washer and dryer, an accessible entrance up front, and a driveway with space for guest parking-no covered parking or garages, and no HOA or outside community perks to worry about here. There's a steady staff known for being dependable and responsive, and some programs have their own special names and features designed to help residents keep a sense of independence, even as they get the help they need every day. The service fees, from what's been shared, tend to be lower than bigger assisted living centers or similar options, likely due to the size and setup of the home. The facility holds all required permits and updates have kept it in line with what's needed for senior housing, and over the years it's become a steady, comfortable place where a small group of seniors can get daily support, good meals, not too many frills, and just enough company and gentle routine to keep things warm and steady.
