Welcoming Envinronment

The other tenants were very nice and helpful toward my Mother. Far as board games etc. She has felt welcomed by others. There are some concerns with the toileting situation. She was not use to not wiping after bowel movement. They were asked to wipe afterwards and she was not comfortable with this in the beginning.

City View in the Square Co-Op Apartments

Located just off Portage Street is Kalamazoo, Kalamazoo County, Michigan's Washington Square Co-op Apartments, which specializes in senior housing. It's nestled in a park-like setting with its old, beautiful trees and garden areas which are used by residents, along with the picnic areas and other amenities. A private van or bus service makes weekly trips into town for shopping and other activities. Within walking distance, you can find the Bronson Hospital, grocery stores, Kalamazoo's historic library, and farmers market.

A staffed office handles residents' concerns, but because these are co-op apartments, the staff here is minimal. There is a private van for building to building transport, to take residents around the property from their apartment to activities and back again. The staff is receptive and caring, and there is always an answer for the emergency pull cord in each unit.

Washington Square amenities, activities:

  • Air conditioner
  • Summer cookouts on the patio
  • Coin-operated laundry
  • Parking
  • Bus service available into town
  • Elevator
  • Pets under 20 lbs. allowed

Residents have a tight knit personal and business relationship through co-ownership. Living in a co-op apartment means living in a complete and total independent state. What makes that a bit less daunting is...

Review for City View in the Square Co-Op Apartments

I believe it is recently under new management, but I'm not 100% sure. But up to now I would say look elsewhere. High rise or crosstown I have heard are nicer in comparison but I don't have any first hand experience. Mom is trying to get into something else at the moment...

City View Experience

They're nice to start, but after a little while they aren't so much. The food is alright. It's from loaves and fishes. The activities from what I understand are hit and miss as far as actually happening. They offer rides to the store via co-op transportation, Walmart , aldis and such, but my mother says she can never get to use it and she has tried.

friendly and affordable.

5 for everything except dining/meals because city view doesn't provide that service. Overall, my mother in laws experience has been great. The apartment is very nice, it is very affordable and the people who work at this complex are very nice. We are still so grateful for your help in finding a nice place for her to live

Friendly-Affordable Place to Live

They have been fabulous. The whole experience was wonderful. We picked this community because, of the location, and it met our needs financially. It worked out to be the best option. Overall it is the right size, the apartment is adorable, and my love one is very happy. [name removed] from A Place for Mom, helped me. Everything fell into place, and it was a blessing. For people, living on social securit, this is a very nice place to live.

A fair review on City View

We chose City View because they had availability at the time when we were needing it. The apartment sizes are fair, about 500 square feet. We did have a problem with water coming through to his place, it took a long time to get that cleaned up. Other than that I think everything has been fine for him.
