Recent reviews of Independent Living in Galveston County, TX
The Terraces at Kingwood Town Center
5.0

My dad loves the place and I have talked to the other residents there and they all love it, too. Some of the residents have been at other places and they said The Terraces is the best. Everyone is friendly and outgoing. The staff interacts with the residents and the food and activities are also good. We have no complaints. I would recommend it to anyone.

Good Living Community Care in Houston, TX
5.0

We chose Good Living Community Care because of the convenient location and they worked really hard to get my dad into dialysis. The room sizes here were pretty good for what he needed. As assisted living, I would recommend to others looking.

Optimum Personal Care - Sugar Land
5.0

5 on all of the above categories, it has been an excellent experience at Optimum Personal Care - Sugar Land. The facility is very clean and the staff is very Godly, which meant a lot to our family. I absolutely recommend this facility to anybody looking for assisted living.
