Overview of Miyako Gardens Apartments

Miyako Gardens Apartments offers independent living in Los Angeles, California. Residents have private one-bedroom or two-bedroom apartments, along with community services rather than daily care. The layouts can suit a single resident or a couple moving together.

A Walk Score of 95 out of 100 makes the area a walker’s paradise. Daily errands do not require a car, so a resident who no longer drives can still get out independently. Bus service to a nearby senior center supports access to that destination, while the recreation room and courtyard benches offer places to spend time within the community. Pets are allowed, so residents can bring a pet when moving in. The community may be a good fit for someone who wants independent living near everyday destinations and does not need daily assistance.
