We have lived here for almost 9 years now and find it to be as perfect as we could ask for. The expenses are predictable and lower than most cooperatives, the people have become like an extended family to us and it fits our lifestyle. We have big family gatherings in the Great Room and don't have to "childproof" our home when we all get together. I also like the heated parking and security features. We always feel safe here! It was our best retirement decision.

I moved into Realife Cooperative in February of 2025. This was one of the best decisions I have ever made. My neighbors are so friendly and helpful. I love not having to maintain a house and yard. I am able to have my dog with me. I feel safe and there's never a dull moment here. Cooperative living is the way to go!

We're here almost 7 years, felt "at home" right away. SO many positives! Spacious kitchen and units. Beautiful gardens. Lots of activities. Quiet, safe neighborhood close to shopping and medical. Friendly, welcoming people who share skills, talents, and running the cooperative through committees and Board. We are so thankful we found this place!

Each time we bring some of our belongings to Realife we always met more of the residents. These residents are all very nice. We love the view from our second floor patio, pine trees and flower and vegetable garden. What more can you ask for.
