A barber and beauty salon provides an on site place for grooming, while the garden patio and veranda offer outdoor areas within the community.

Organized outings to the arboretum and Freedom Trail give residents opportunities to take part in trips beyond the community. The activity calendar includes holiday and Veterans Day events, card games and happy hour. A Walk Score of 52 means the area is somewhat walkable, with some errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives may be able to complete select errands independently. SouthWest Commons by New Perspective is owned by New Perspective Senior Living.
