It is also part of the Blake Senior Living communities, which includes nearby sister communities in the region.

With programming centered on a resident-directed philosophy, the community encourages activities and events shaped by the interests, preferences, and hobbies of the residents rather than relying solely on standardized programming structures.

Combining independent living, assisted living, memory care, resident-driven programming, and convenient proximity to Charlotte, Somerby Baxter Village is an ideal option for older adults and families seeking a full continuum of care within a socially active and lifestyle-focused residential community in the Fort Mill and York County area.
