"The folks here are friendly, and eager to converse with you. The head office is always receptive to any problems which you may have and tries to help you resolve them. The laundromat in the building saves one the trouble of going out to do laundry. The library is here for the bookworm. The rec. room functions as a place for many activities, such as the council meetings, staged dinners and visiting entertainment. The apartments are efficient to meet one's every need."
