Buckner Retirement Services currently has senior living communities in Austin, Beaumont, Houston, Longview and San Angelo, Texas. Ventana by Buckner in Dallas opened in 2019.
A nonprofit senior living community is usually backed by a religious or charitable foundation. Revenue received for services and housing is reinvested solely to improve the community and the organization’s mission. For-profit senior living communities, however, are priced to ensure the stakeholder, investors and/or managers receive a certain percentage of the revenue.
Five of Buckner’s senior living communities are rental communities. As far as the cost of senior living, in a rental community your monthly fee includes the cost of your apartment as well as access to the services and amenities offered at each community. The Austin, Beaumont, Houston, Longview and San Angelo communities are rental communities. The sixth community, Ventana by Buckner, opened in 2019, is a Life Care Community.
Buckner communities serve senior adults who are “62 years or better.” Most residents remain active and are out traveling, volunteering or even working well into their 90s and 100s!
