Mountainview Apartments sits at 1212 South Federal Boulevard in Denver, Colorado, and offers affordable rental housing especially for people 55 and older or for those living with a disability, and it's got 154 units, including one and two-bedroom apartments, some with accessible features for folks who need them, and rents for a one-bedroom start at $550 with utilities included, which helps stretch a fixed income. The place was built in 1979 and covers about 85,930 square feet, so there's plenty of space, and it's been designed for easy living with things like central air, stainless appliances, quartz countertops, ceiling fans, and microwaves, along with refrigerators, electric ranges, dishwashers, and garbage disposals, which helps make daily life a bit smoother, and you'll find high-speed internet, pet-friendly rules with a reasonable deposit, and free on-site parking too. Residents have access to a fitness center, outdoor swimming pool, laundry facilities, a clubhouse or lounge, reserved parking, and controlled access entry to help with peace of mind, plus there's a playground and picnic area outside if friends or family stop by. Maintenance, including 24-hour emergency help, gets handled by the on-site team, so repairs or problems get fixed right there, and an on-site leasing office keeps things organized if someone needs help with their lease or has questions about payments, which can even be made online.
The complex focuses on independent living and keeps people connected with a full-time Service Coordinator, who helps residents live safely and connect with local resources, while onsite partnerships and a Local Resident Council provide a sense of community, supported by wellness programs through the Healthy Living Initiative-things like community gardens, healthy cooking classes, and mental and physical health activities to keep people engaged. There are community events and activities that help neighbors stay social and informed, and for those who use public housing or Section 8 vouchers, there are 153 project-based units approved for these subsidies, and the management offers help transferring vouchers and managing applications through a dedicated HCV Department. The setting is welcoming with landscaped grounds and a secure gated environment, and there's always an option to check on other senior living choices nearby, since Mountainview connects to local advisors and resources through partnerships. Waitlists apply for some units, and the application comes with a modest fee, plus deposits usually run about the first month's rent, but these details get sorted through onsite staff who stay available during business hours. There's a network of independent living, assisted living, memory care, and nursing services connected in the area, but Mountainview itself focuses mainly on affordable, comfortable, and supportive independent living for seniors and people with disabilities wanting a home in Denver.
