    Bright affordable studio; exercise caution

    I love Faircrest - my studio is bright, affordable, has a full kitchen, lots of natural light, laundry and elevator on the same floor, and friendly staff with good activities. Staff and the director are generally helpful and get things done (handrails installed, timely fixes), but I experienced discrimination due to my disability: the apartment manager canceled my lease and I had to reapply, and communication can be poor. I'm worried about security and maintenance (entry doors stick and don't always close; carpet needs shampooing). Overall I'm satisfied and would recommend with caution because of the discrimination and safety concerns.

    About Faircrest Apartments

    Faircrest Apartments sits tucked in a quiet Saint Francis neighborhood with single-family homes all around, and the traditional brick and siding makes it fit right in, so if you're looking for a 55+ place with no surprises in terms of setting, this may suit. The building has two stories, and you'll find 43 apartments, split between 24 one-bedroom and 19 two-bedroom units, with ground-floor units there if stairs are a concern. The apartments have full kitchens, bathtubs, and air conditioning, and they allow pets if you have one. The lobby is secure and offers elevator access, and the indoor mailboxes keep things simple. You get resident parking and transportation, and outdoor common areas give you a chance to get outside and see neighbors in a park-like spot.

    There's a floor plan gallery to look through the available layouts, and the space itself is designed so seniors can move about easily-adding things like handicap features and comfortable gathering spaces. Residents in this community can find different care options, from independent living and assisted living to specialized memory care, hospice, skilled nursing, adult day, and home health care services if those become needed later. Support staff are on site, so help's there if something in the apartment needs fixing or if health services are needed. Faircrest Apartments really keeps things focused on security, comfort, and affordability, trying to offer a stable and accessible place that doesn't pile on frills but gives enough space and ease for people looking to live simply and safely as they age.
