The Montclair

Overview of The Montclair

The Montclair offers independent living in Springfield, MO. Residents have private living with community services rather than daily care, and the community may be a good fit for someone seeking that arrangement with access to a fitness center, wellness program, and transportation. The Montclair opened in 1999 and is in the Old Monterey Apartments neighborhood.

A fitness center gives residents a place to exercise on site, while a salon supports personal grooming without leaving the community. Restaurant-style dining provides three meals a day, with room delivery available when a resident cannot join dinner; private dining is also available. Transportation gives residents a way to travel outside the community without arranging their own ride.

The area has a Walk Score of 61 / 100 and is somewhat walkable, meaning some errands can be done on foot and a resident who no longer drives may be able to reach nearby destinations independently. The community also offers LifeLoop as a signature program, and Dial Senior Living owns The Montclair.
