Overview of Raider Ranch

Operated by Chp Raider Ranch Tx Tenant Corp, Raider Ranch is an independent living community in Lubbock, Texas, about 6 miles from downtown. Brandon Arnett serves as Executive Director. The 160-bed community has been serving residents for 21 years, giving it an established presence in the Lubbock area.

Residents can choose from one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom apartments. Each residence includes a full kitchen, walk-in closets, a full bathroom, an in-unit washer and dryer, and a wireless personal emergency system. With these features, residents can maintain their independence with convenience and peace of mind.

Residents have access to a heated indoor pool, a fitness center, a café, and an on-site salon and spa. Meals are served in the community’s dining hall. Residents are welcome to bring their pets, making the transition to community living easier for those with a companion animal.

Raider Ranch also lists an Alzheimer’s certification among its specialized care services, which is an uncommon feature for an independent living community. It’s worth asking about during a tour to better understand how it is incorporated into daily operations.

The car-dependent area has a Walk Score of 14 out of 100, so most errands and outings require a vehicle. Families planning regular trips for appointments, shopping, or visits may want to keep that tradeoff in mind when considering the community.
