Affinity at South Park is a community for people age 55 and over, built in 2018 and managed by Axis Residential, with 163 apartment units and about 129,865 square feet of living space in the Slaughter-Manchaca area, and it's really set up for active adults who want to live independently but who might want extra help sometimes too, so you see apartments with open floor plans, walk-in showers in some units, private balconies or patios in most, and some units come with extra storage and walk-in closets, and you'll find the usual choices between one-bedroom, two-bedroom, three-bedroom, and studio layouts with a few bath options. People who move in get all-inclusive pricing, which covers things like cable, Wi-Fi, water, electric, and other utilities along with community-wide Wi-Fi, and you've got on-site maintenance, guest apartments for visitors, and controlled access gates for added security so folks feel safe. The staff are known for being friendly and helpful, always around 24 hours a day, and they try to make sure the place runs well and stays clean, which helps build a pretty relaxed and good atmosphere.
Pets are welcome, so cats and dogs can live there too, with a limit of two per unit and some breed restrictions, plus you pay a non-refundable fee and some monthly pet rent, but dogs get their own washing station, a dog park right on the property, and even a pet play area, which is a nice touch for animal lovers. The community is made for walking, with sidewalks all over, and people can join in a lot of planned social activities, like games, arts and crafts in the studio, movie nights in the theater, and even working in the community garden, so there's almost always something to do, and the clubhouse is a good spot for neighbors to relax in too. There's a business center for anyone who needs a computer or Wi-Fi, a pub for socializing, and places like the BBQ lounge and outdoor kitchen for cookouts or get-togethers when the weather's nice.
Active folks can use the pickleball court, the fitness room-which is open 24 hours-and the virtual golf simulator, and it's not every day you find an indoor saltwater pool and spa in a place like this, but Affinity at South Park has one, and there's also a hot tub/Jacuzzi so people can unwind. Seniors who enjoy reading can go to the library, and the games room has billiards and other things to pass the time. Recycling services help keep things tidy, and the complex has handicap accessible units too. There's something to suit different care needs, like independent living for healthier folks, plus assisted living for those who need help with day-to-day things, and even memory care for people living with Alzheimer's or dementia, so you can find the right kind of help if you need it, and the community aims to help everyone stay active and follow their interests.
Meals are recognized locally for being balanced and nutritious, and with the help of helpful staff, the days are structured but flexible, so residents get both support and independence. The setting is social, but with plenty of private space, and anyone interested can visit during leasing hours on weekdays and Saturdays to get a better sense of what daily life is like there, and with all amenities available 24/7, residents can keep busy anytime they want, whether that's taking a swim, playing games, or spending time with neighbors or their pets.
