Anthracite Apartments sits at 101 North Main Street in Pittston, Pennsylvania, and it was built back in 1981, having 121 units and taking up about 61,710 square feet, with a property type classified simply as an apartment. The community's set up for the elderly, especially those with very low income, and uses the Section 8 (202) program, so rent is usually about 30% of the resident's adjusted monthly income, which helps make things more affordable for folks who need that kind of support. There are different residential living spaces, and the building has a mix that includes one-bedroom units and at least one accessible unit, along with elevators for the floors, as not everybody wants to deal with stairs at this stage in life. Smoking isn't allowed in any of the residences, and pets aren't permitted either. The building follows rules to make sure nobody faces discrimination based on gender identity or orientation, and there are extra protections for people's rights under the law.
On the inside, you'll find things like fire alarms and smoke detectors, which fall under the Section 8 (202) housing program rules, and there's on-site mail delivery, which folks tend to appreciate for convenience. The grounds are pretty well maintained, and the staff's often described as helpful, joyful, and kind, with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere for the residents, and there are programs that've even won awards for engaging people socially, physically, mentally, and emotionally. Supportive services are available for elderly residents, and the place does its best to care for active seniors who might need some help with daily living, along with independent living, assisted living, memory care, and even some home care services, plus they've set up an environment meant to reduce confusion and wandering for people with dementia. Nutritious meals get prepared with a focus on quality ingredients, but there isn't a lot of detailed information out there about things like parking, laundry, air conditioning, or outdoor amenities, and there's nothing mentioned about the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, or whether any utilities come included, so that's something to keep in mind. People can get rental history, occupancy rates, and different property details if they want to dig deeper, and all the programs and services stick close to rules that protect against discrimination, making it a place that tries to meet the needs of a wide range of seniors.
