Testimonials

We only considered three places in Richmond. We came here because it seemed that Westminster Canterbury Richmond was flexible with its programs. It just seemed to be more responsive to the general idea of a person retiring and being productive.

I'm very involved in computer technology. The community had a room dedicated to computers - the other communities did not. They had no particular recognition of computers being part of retirement. When I got here, I started a group called Westminster Computer Users informally. We had so many people show up that we had people standing and sitting on the floor. That made me think that Westminster Canterbury Richmond was innovative, and they even stepped up and supported what I was doing.

My wife and I moved in at age 68. We found it perfect for us. About 60 members of our church moved here. It gave us a sense of continuity. Our apartment has a vista—and it's so green. We have underground parking, which the other community did not offer. The beautiful theater is exquisite. It is a privilege to have that available to us. Because of grants and donations, we don't have to pay for any of the performances. The fact that we have more residents here also allows us to have more dining options. It was more affordable compared to the other community we looked at. The pluses just kept adding up.
