    I hope you are including your daughter in this decision-making. It is your decision, but she might have questions that you might be overlooking. You might consider a two-bedroom so you can have a scaled-down version of your train and a place for musical instruments. Also, inquire about how soundproof the walls are. Try to be set up for the things you enjoy in your new environment.

    Yes Faye...I've already planned for that. My place will be a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment of 975 square feet, with all utilities paid and all meals served in the dining room. Daily activities, too...all year long.
    My Daughter (age 49) has been making all the important decisions since my Wife passed away.

    Awesome news, and it sounds like this will be a place where you will be really happy to live, @Hal Pollner . I am happy for you ! When do you get to move into the new apartment ?
    Be sure to keep us all updated on how that is going.

    You bet I'll keep you updated!

    The move will be sometime in October after complete refurbishment is completed, as the first rent payment will be due on November 1.

    Thank you for starting this thread! I am currently looking at Canadian retirement homes, specifically in Ontario, and I am having trouble choosing from the many options. Could anyone provide tips on how they were able to choose the perfect retirement home for them?
