    Connect 55 is an excellent place to live you are looking for senior living. I have made a lot of friends that I now go to lunch with. The community activities have been great since Sarah has been here. The office manager Krystal is very understanding. She has made great updates and changes since she has with here as well. I enjoy the quiet living and how I feel welcomed. It’s been the best choice I made after downsizing from my home of 31 years. I don’t have to worry about lawn care or snow ...
    anymore. Thank you.
