Looking to possibly move my mom into one in St. Mary's. She is going to be applying for disability. She would need an income based unit. Just trying to get an idea of what out options are. Any tips, good places, places to stay away from?
Try Cedar Lane Apartments in Leonardtown. My mom lives there and really likes it.
New Towne Village behind the Leonardtown Fire House...they do NOT make you buy the meals...in my opinion, much nicer and cleaner
The surrounding neighborhood isnt that great. Alot of traffic for a deadend street, Not sure if your mom drives or not, but, if she likes to walk, be exra careful, like I said, alot of traffic and not much obeying the speed limit.
Know people that live at New Towne Village, and they have never complained about safety.
Don't consider them if she smokes. Whenever I drive by, there is a handful of seniors standing across the road, sometimes on the road, because they not only banned smoking in the apartment complex they also banned smoking on the property. I can understand banning smoking in the actual building but these people are 80 and above years old if they want to smoke they should be able to smoke in a safe environment. This may have changed because it has been a while since I have been past there but I doubt it.
We've lived close to there for about 15 years. Neighborhood has changed somewhat. Doesnt appear to be a good element in the subsidized townhomes. Thats where they busted a drug deal gone bad last year, caught the guy with a gun. Also have had LEO knock on our door to tell us that they were looking for somebody who was breaking into the cars in the senior citizens housing, wanted to know if we heard or saw anything. Just saying be careful.
Talked with a friend that has live at New Towne Village for over 15 years, and they said that there has NEVER been a car broken into in their parking lot. It has to be better then Lexington Park for sure!!!
