best move ever

I lived in the same apartment in somerville ma for close to 19 years and never felt at home till I moved to. the Legacy. Everything about the best is just perfect. The staff are just amazing not just the office staff but the maintaince guys. Always on top of things that need fixing and maintaining. Broken dishwasher? They come right away to fix or replace. The residents range from new born to 97 years of age which makes living here such a blast, so much energy. everyone is so friendly you… quickly becomes more than neighbors you become great friends. To have the little backyard that leads up to the minuteman bike path is just breathtaking. They now have a local gardening company that set up 6 garden beds and started teaching us how to grow our own herbs and vegetables. Best decision I have ever made moving into the Legacy. I am finally HOME after living in mass for 30 years.
