Review of Alexis Estates

I am loving living here. I have my privacy when I want or need it, but always someone to talk to or something to do. Your choice. I don't have to shop, cook or do dishes. my daughter calls it my resort. No pressure from anyone. My apt is cleaned for me once a week. Hope I can stay indefinitely.

I have been very happy here. I have been treated with respect and love. The programs keep me in touch with others and that is good. Food for the most part is fine and I enjoy it. It is much better than another facility where I was. I really am pleased with everything.

Review of Alexis Estates

We lived between Plano and Allen and needed to be close to family, and moved here from the Rio Grande Valley, McAllen, TX. We came in April 2011 we began looking at different areas and decided we were still too young for this. In 2015 we moved to [removed] but close to family, but was not happy. In Oct 2017 we moved here and dearly love the place and area. A most happy place. Have had a few health problems
