Sterling Heights

They treat all of their residents like family. They're very considerate of individual needs, and they are very present. The management there is in the dining room, approachable, and available all the time. The rooms are clean. They have lots of wonderful programs and entertainment. My sister has been very happy there.

Review for Sterling Heights

My sister is very happy at Sterling Heights. We're finding the staff the rooms and the food to be very good. It has a very family like atmosphere and my sister felt she fit in almost immediately. There are plenty of activities and the environment is very cheerful. We would highly recommend it to anyone. The starting prices for rent seem reasonable by comparison to other places of similar quality. The places we looked at in New Jersey were not half as nice for the same or more money.

Living Graciously in a Gracious Community

Because I am a people person I like the people here especially the staff that exemplifies what it means to be diligent and dutiful. The apartment size is small it is a studio size but that's all that we could afford. They also have one and two bedroom sizes as far as we know of. The location of the community is in a nice quiet area and as long as we have lived in the Lehigh valley we never knew it was here and that's also what a lot of other people say.
