Northridge VIllage is a very professionally run community with compassionate, efficient personnel. The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming for residents' demeanors and outlooks. The healthful meals are tasty, nicely varied and attractive and we appreciate the cleanliness of handling foodstuffs. Employees appear to be happy with their employment. Entertainment opportunities are numerous and diverse.

My experience has been really good. My mom like it. My mom likes the food. The staff is awesome. The room sizes are good, could be bigger, but there are plenty of common areas. They have a wonderful outdoor courtyard area for residents. Need more variety in the activities.
