          Beautiful We had a wonderful experience dealing with Roman, he was so helpful and patient working with us, he was always available and helped us with all the paperwork and setting things up. Our home was so clean and everything I was hoping for, we have met some neighbors and they all love it here. We’re so excited for this new chapter of our lives. Thank you Redwoods and especially Roman!

          Living at Redwood We lived at Redwood for five years and loved it there. The management was great and the maintenance especially Rudy but he left about a year ago. Our neighbors were all super nice and friendly. I would recommend Redwood Altoona as it is a nice place to live. The only reason we moved was for health reasons.

          Great Transitional Living Redwood was great for transitioning into a home but maintenance could be hard to get a hold of and sometimes communication with the office was a struggle. The units feel like their own and like a home.

          Expensive, but very nice. The rent was a little high and had several add on monthly expenses. However, the staff was nice, the location was convenient and the place was updated.

          April 12, 2024
          They responded the same day. Was the new maintenance person, sorry. I can't remember her name. She was awesome, she tested the oven and it worked. We haven't used it in awhile, but the last time we used it, i was baking porkchops and after an hour I had to moved them to the toaster oven. Of course it appears to work now. So, we will try it again. She said if it still isn't working she'll be back. She was very nice and professional.

        details
        The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on scale of 1 (below average) and to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider needs as part of the school selection process.
