Retirement Community | |
Nice post! A lot of good information about what the beautiful city of Seattle and surrounding areas has to offer. I have been researching the retirement community in Seattle for a couple of months now as I have my retired father who wants to possibly relocate here but he is older and might need some assistance. Because of this, I have been looking into retirement homes and found a couple of good ones. My favorite one so far has been Bayview Retirement Community. I will post their website below but they seem to have what my father and I have been searching for. Do you know any other good ones or have any input for me? Thanks again! :) | |

I moved from Idaho to a retirement community in Seattle to be closer to my son and grandchildren. I love it here. I'm glad I decided to make the move. | |
