Slidell Senior Citizens Residence sits about 2.1 miles outside Beecher, Michigan, and serves seniors aged 55 and older, with a focus on affordable, project-based Section 8 housing. The building offers 153 spacious one- and two-bedroom apartments and senior apartments, designed for comfort with carpeting, large closets, big bathrooms, and all appliances included while heat, water, and trash pickup come with the rent. Some units like those at Taylor Lake Manor have washers and dryers, but other floors have laundry areas for everyone. There's a no pet policy, though one section notes furry friends are welcome, so pet rules may change or need clarification before moving in.
