Interfaith Apartments sits at 510 W Main St, Richmond, IN, built back in 1980 and made with a modern look that stands out, and with seven stories, it counts as a low-rise building but still has elevators and at least one accessible unit for those who need it. The place mainly offers senior apartments for older adults who want to live on their own but could use a bit of support, and while the apartments stand independent, the community makes an effort to include things that help elderly adults feel comfortable and safe, like fire alarms, smoke detectors, and on-site mail delivery, which really helps when folks would rather not go too far for their mail. The apartments have all sorts of little touches like electric heat and air conditioning in every unit that residents can control themselves, and all the usual kitchen appliances tucked into units across the two buildings. Utilities come with the rent, except cable and the internet, which is handy for budgeting. Rent itself depends on what people can afford, usually coming out to about 30% of monthly income, and Interfaith Apartments falls under the Section 8 (202) housing program for the elderly, so residents can count on affordable options whether they live alone or with family, including those with handicaps or disabilities, and being a Fair Housing & Equal Opportunity provider, the apartments welcome diversity in the building. The place doesn't allow smoking in the apartments or common areas, and it lets residents bring along pets, which always cheer up a home.
Focusing a lot on community, the apartments have shared spaces and programs that encourage neighbors to gather, whether it's for a meal made with good quality ingredients or just casual time together. It's a non-profit that tries to take care of the social, mental, physical, and even spiritual needs of its residents, offering faith-based activities and supportive services for people living on very low incomes. Reviews mention a culture of friendliness and helpfulness both from staff and amongst the folks living there, which says a lot, since it's tough to find a place with consistently high satisfaction and even some awards for care, activities, and how welcoming the place feels. Folks will find amenities made for comfort and convenience, but there's no long list of special features or flashy services-just the important basics for living well, aging safely, and staying part of a community that values togetherness and kindness in everyday life.
