Resident Reviews
I have lived here at REDI V for almost 16 years now. My apartment is my home and my neighbors are like family. We have a wonderful Service Coordinator who comes & helps with paper work and also plans activities for us to enjoy together in our great community room…

I have enjoyed the bake off events that brought out our baking skills as well as the excursions to Dinosaur Ridge and Butterfly Pavilion. They were great trips because it reminded us of when we were younger just to get out and seeing things is much appreciated.
