"Mixed review: Nice apartments, friendly residents, but poor security."
Our experience at the Senior Living community has been challenging due to theft. Despite that, we appreciate the nice apartments with sunny views and the option to darken them. Some units even have electric fireplaces. However, security is a concern. Although there's a night guard, there are no hallway cameras or checkpoints. We've lost valuable items, and overall, safety feels lacking. The residents are friendly, but the security situation needs improvement.

"Be Cautious About Pricing"
The assisted living facility has lots of fun activities and nice spaces, plus friendly staff. But be cautious about the pricing – it's not as straightforward as it seems.

"Lovely Amenities, But Beware Extra Costs"
This place has a bunch of cool stuff to do, nice places to hang out, and good food. The daytime helpers and dining staff are nice and helpful. But, the price you see includes only one hour of personal help each day, like getting dressed or help in the bathroom. If you need more help, you have to pay for it from another company, and they make you pay for a bunch of hours at once, not just for a little bit at a time. They also charge a lot more for nighttime help. This can end up costing a ton extra, way more than they say it does. And you can't just pay for a little bit of extra help at a time. Keep this in mind when thinking about how much it'll cost to take care of your loved one here.

"Best Place for Mom with Great Food and Friendly Atmosphere"
We were very happy with The Village at Duxbury when looking for a place for our mom. The place is clean, well-kept, and the apartments are spacious. Everyone we talked to was friendly and shared their experiences. My mom ended up getting a unit here and has made new friends, joined a book club, and uses the car service for doctor visits. The food is delicious she's already gained a few pounds! A Place For Mom helped us check out several options, and this one was the best for our mom.

"Great Place with Friendly Staff"
We were really happy with The Village at Duxbury. The place was clean, well-kept, and the apartments were big. Everyone we met was friendly and happy to talk about their experiences. My mom decided to move in and has already made new friends, joined a book club, and uses the car service for doctor's appointments. She loves the food and has even gained some weight! Thanks to A Place For Mom, we were able to check out a few places, and this one was definitely the best for our mom.
