Overview of Elderwood Residences at Cheektowaga

Elderwood Residences at Cheektowaga offers independent living in Buffalo, NY, for adults aged 55 and older. Independent living provides a private home with community services rather than daily care, and the one bedroom and two bedroom patio homes give residents a choice between a more compact layout and additional living space. The community may be a good fit for an older adult who can manage daily care independently and wants access to shared services and activities.

Residents can use the exercise room, salon, transportation services, social activities and community room, which offers a complimentary continental breakfast each day. Pets are allowed, and Collin Sabers serves as director. A Walk Score of 34 places the area in a car dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride; the transportation service offers a way to get out without driving personally.
