Ten days after we moved here nearly four years ago, I asked my husband how it felt to be here. While I was an Oberlin College alumna and former staff member, he had no Oberlin ties. "I feel more at home here than I did in 50 years in East Lansing," he said. Meantime, we often say to each other how lucky we are that there is a Kendal at Oberlin and that we get to be part of it. We love contributing to several of the 100+ resident-created and -run committees and interest groups and benefiting from others...not to mention all the concerts, lectures, theater, and college classes we can audit free of charge. Its no wonder that the average age of new residents is younger than elsewhere. In addition to the vibrant community, theres great food, a lovely campus, an outstanding administration, and wonderful care for residents who are ill or frail.

My wife and I moved to Kendal at Oberlin almost seven years ago. It was ideally suited for us -- nonprofit, located close to a top institution of higher learning with outstanding music, art, and sense of community, and filled with active residents from all over the country who bring an extraordinary range of experiences. The housing, dining, health care, and other services are first-rate. Its not inexpensive, but its worth it. We love it.

Very expensive and they charge extra for every little thing. You pay a lot to buy in, and you cant sell it, then yoy pay a very high monthly bill. The food has gone downhill....very bland...and the healthcare needs improvement. It is a good place if you are healthy and mobile but if you are ill or frail, not so much.
