Abundant Christian Living Community in Johnson City, TN

The residents & staff are great. Food is okay I believe they may be a little under staffed. Disappointed to see rate increase 2 months after moving in, my rate was locked in for a year. Independent living space is adequate for what I stepped down into. Good way to start your downsizing.

I am currently a resident at Townview Johnson City and most everything has been great for me here at this facility. I like Townview. I would recommend this facility to others, in fact, I already have.
