Conifer Village at Oakcrest

Conifer Village at Oakcrest sits in a wooded neighborhood of Capitol Heights, MD, just one mile from the D.C. line and right inside the Capital Beltway, and it's meant for adults aged 62 and older who meet certain income requirements since they're a low income housing tax credit (LIHTC) community where rents are set around 30% of monthly income and people usually go through a full application with proof of income, background check, references, and all that, and the place doesn't allow dogs or cats, so pets wouldn't be moving in. They have one and two-bedroom apartments with sizes running from about 698 to 1,057 square feet, and all of them have Energy Star appliances like dishwashers, ovens, refrigerators, garbage disposals, plus there's washer and dryer hookups in the units, carpet or hardwood or laminate floors, central air, patios or balconies, and everything's clean and modern because the place is brand new, and a smoke-free policy keeps things healthier. Security's handled through controlled access, there's an elevator, a 24-hour emergency maintenance staff, on-site management, and a front desk that can be reached by phone, so people do get help if they need it, and they offer a community shuttle for getting around too. Folks who want to stay busy can use the fitness center, outdoor fitness station, sports court, computer lab, business center, clubhouse, or community rooms, and there are plenty of places to sit outdoors on the patio or just walk around the nicely kept grounds, and the whole building's accessible for people with disabilities. There's plenty of parking out front, plus a guest suite if someone wants to have visitors stay over. They offer assisted living, memory care, and independent living services, so someone who needs more help or has memory problems can find support, and there are senior apartments for people who just want to come and go on their own. Reviews seem to be very positive, showing a 5-star rating, and people who live there seem to like the staff and the fact that things are new and well cared for. Laundry is handled in common laundry centers or in-unit hookups, and the apartments are close to public transportation and other neighborhood services. The apartments use a fair housing and equal opportunity policy, and everyone who qualifies by age and income can apply.
