I have lived here for going on 5 years the first three were fabulous now we go through manager after manager, the grass is dead the bushes are dead the place is filthy, drug addicts are everywhere homeless people everywhere, Windows broken, everything being stolen, the ladies in the office could care less who lives on this property as long as they get their quota filled there are some apartments that have people living here that don't belong here drug addicts hear that they won't get rid of and many cars that don't belong on the property, worst management ever, I would never recommend this place to anyone it is turned into an awful place for elderly people to live, the rent keeps going higher, they hire the washer and dryer which hardly get your clothes clean at all, the office is closed on Saturdays closes at 5:00 during the week, there's no more events happening anymore, all this place is ,is a place to collect money

Well I have lived here about 5 months now, there are good and bad aspects of course, but the bad is starting to outweigh and win the day here.<br>The property is supposed to be "controlled access" but there are holes cut in the fence by the homeless occupants of a nearby encampment which abuts next to the railroad tracks. The trains are a HUGE nuisance with the noise, fumes and constant idling airbrake releases.<br>Management is told about the holes and they just look away and say "we are getting bids", weeks turn into months and nothing is done. Man gates can be pulled open from the outside, talking about loss of control access.<br>This is supposed to be a non smoking property but the smell of people smoking weed and tobacco hangs in the air like a noxious cloud. Some residents don't even try to hide their smoking.<br>Dogs are allowed to run around off leash and crap without being picked up., even though there are dog parks located on property.<br>I enjoy the activities and some great neighbors.

It might help if Google maps actually led to 1001 1st Ave N, Kent, WA; instead of to the back gate which is exit only at Sipe and 3rd Ave N. It never shows the right address.

Washington asks us to share this statement and gather a short intake first

Read the statement, add what you can below (a few words each, all optional), and Send signs it with the name you entered.

Washington disclosure statement, dated October 23, 2026, under the Elder and Vulnerable Adult Referral Agency Act (RCW 18.330).

(a) Agency: MyLivingChoice LLC (MyLivingChoice.com), 8705 N. Cypress Ct, Kansas City, MO 64156, (816) 226-7772.

(b) Client: the person sending this request.

(c) Fees: you pay us nothing. If you move into a community we introduced you to, that community pays us a referral fee computed as a percentage of your first month's rent and care charges, invoiced to the community after you move in. If you ask, we will tell you the amount of the fee for any community we refer you to.

(d) Services: MyLivingChoice is a free service that helps families find senior living. We gather a short intake about the care needed, suggest communities that appear able to meet those needs, and introduce you to the ones you choose. For you specifically, we will introduce you to LARC at Kent and share with it your name, contact details and the care needs you described, nothing more.

(e) We will never ask you to waive any claim for loss of personal property or injury, or any right you have under state or federal law.

(f) We work with both you and the community in the same transaction: the community pays us, and we are introducing you to it. To obtain or share confidential health care information about the person who needs care we need your authorization, which you give for the communities named above by acknowledging this statement.

(g) Tours: we do not tour communities as a matter of course. Our information comes from the community itself, its state licence record and public sources. We have not toured LARC at Kent.

(h) You may stop using our service, or switch to another referral agency, at any time and for any reason, with no penalty and no cancellation fee.

(i) Refunds: because you pay us nothing, there is nothing to refund to you. If a community pays us a fee for your placement and the resident dies, is hospitalized or moves to another setting for more appropriate care within the first thirty days after admission, we refund the community a prorated share of the fee for the days not used, as RCW 18.330.090 requires.

(j) Complaints about a referral agency may be filed with the Washington State Office of the Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division (Consumer Resource Center), 800 5th Ave, Suite 2000, Seattle, WA 98104-3188, 1-800-551-4636 in Washington, 1-206-464-6684 from outside the state, https://www.atg.wa.gov/file-complaint.
