Court Square Apartments sits at 101 S 4th Street in Ozark, MO, and it offers both senior apartments and family units, with 16 family units available, all located just east of the square close to restaurants, shops, schools, churches, banks, parks, and county offices, so you'll find a little bit of everything nearby without much trouble, and you can get there easily from Hwy. 65 and Hwy. 14. The community is owned by Hamilton Properties Corporation, and you'll find options for seniors, families, and people needing accessible features for disabilities, so there are units set up with wheelchair ramps, elevators, accessible parking, and some with features meant for people who find moving around harder. There's a full-time activity director that helps put together trips and outings like field trips and offsite activities, so social folks have options to get out, and there's a beauty salon and a spot for devotional services right on site, which means some necessities don't need a drive across town.
They do a good job of keeping things friendly and try to make everyone comfortable, and they let residents keep cats and dogs, which can help some folks feel more at home. When friends or family come by for a visit, there are guest meals and places to chat, and there's an enclosed courtyard for some fresh air, too. The apartments come with basic Wi-Fi and high-speed internet, with residents' parking available and a focus on keeping things accessible. Housing options include one-bedroom apartments for seniors and also some affordable family apartments, so there's a spread across needs and budgets, and the apartments are usually smaller, as is normal for properties under programs like USDA Section 515, which puts a cap on rent and supports lower-cost upkeep.
Court Square Apartments participates in several programs that focus on affordable or subsidized housing like the Low Income Housing Tax Credit, USDA Section 515 Rural Rental Housing, NOAH (Naturally Occurring Affordable Housing), and some units use project-based rental assistance, so you'll find people paying rent that matches their income-no more than 30% of what they earn, with rent often subsidized if someone earns 50% or less of the area median income (AMI), and sometimes up to 80%. Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers are accepted, so the vouchers can cover between $829 and $1,013 for a two-bedroom unit, making some apartments more affordable if folks qualify, though in some cases, people have to join a waiting list, and those can get long for the units with direct rent help. You'll also come across some apartments that don't include rental assistance but are priced to stay affordable, which makes them a rare find for some renters.
The property is linked to Bethesda Senior Living Communities and The Bungalows at Chesterfield Village, among other options, so there's flexibility for folks who want independent living, assisted living, memory care for people with dementia or Alzheimer's, nursing care, or the kind of residential care homes where people get help with things like dressing and bathing, all lined out depending on what someone needs at their stage in life. Staff help with things like medication management and daily activities if needed, and there's a strong effort to keep the place social, comfortable, and as easy as possible, including trips, field trips, organized outings, and pet-friendly policies. Some units may look a little older or have a simpler style due to the rural and budget-friendly focus, but management is known to be friendly and responsive. Services related to rental help, including USDA Section 521 and Housing Choice Vouchers, go on in the background, and some families can get help at no charge through partnerships with groups using the OurParents service brand.
Some apartments are for active, healthy seniors who want hassle-free living and a social space, while others are designed for those who need more help each day. Community spaces, accessible courtyards, and simple, no-frills apartments form most of what you'll see as you walk around, and the close-by essential services in Ozark make daily life a bit easier. Units can be smaller than new complexes, and some are a bit older, but what Court Square Apartments does offer is a wide range of housing and support options, from independent living to specific memory care and assisted living, all tucked into a no-nonsense, community-minded property that keeps its focus on affordability, accessibility, and basic comfort for its residents in rural Missouri.
