Walnut Village Apartments sits at 1240 N Pine St, Ukiah, CA 95482, and has 47 age-restricted apartments for seniors 62 and older, offering studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom layouts, so there's some choice for folks looking for a place to call home without a lot of fuss, and you'll see the staff here often gets recognition for being helpful and friendly which seems to make everyone comfortable right when they move in and start taking part in things. The apartments fit individuals or couples and those with lower incomes can apply for subsidized apartments-rents are income-based, working out to about 30 percent of what you make, with rental help like Housing Choice Vouchers and Section 8 available because Walnut Village takes part in the Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program under Section 202.
Walnut Village uses its own words for things, calling the homes "Walnut Village Apartments" and having care options like Assisted Living, Memory Care for Alzheimer's and dementia, Independent Living for healthy folks who want to maintain their own routines, and Home Care with trained aides so seniors who still want to mostly stay home can get the non-medical help and friendship they need without moving. People who live here get access to amenities such as comfortable community spaces where neighbors come together, plus things like chef-prepared meals that focus on nutrition and taste, as well as supportive services to help with daily needs like bathing, dressing, and medication if needed. There are activities all the time, aimed at keeping residents socially connected, with events that cover physical, mental, and emotional health-this focus on engagement and well-being has won the place several awards, including Best of Senior Living, Best All Star, Best Activities, and Most Friendly, all for quality care and good activities.
The location helps, too, with six hospitals nearby for emergencies, five pharmacies to get prescriptions filled without hassle, and there are 21 physicians within the area, plus easy access to parks, two theaters, and three parks for stretching your legs or enjoying the outdoors, and for those who like to eat out, there are 32 restaurants close by, while five cafes sit on the property itself, and several transportation options make it simple to get around town as needed. The facility is careful about some risks-like leaves and walnut shells outside that could be trip hazards-so people need to especially watch their step. The building accepts HUD subsidies, is known around Ukiah as a simple, accessible place focused on helping seniors live how they like, and if you're interested, there's often a waiting list, which can sometimes take years. The community's got a strong reputation, with a review score of 8.8 from 23 reviews, mostly for good care, friendly staff, engaging activities, and a no-nonsense environment that focuses on living well as you age.
