Walnut Park Apartments

Overview of Walnut Park Apartments

Walnut Park Apartments offers independent living in Grand Junction, CO, with a private apartment and community services rather than daily personal care. All available homes are one-bedroom units, and the community has 90 units in total. Twelve are fully accessible, giving residents who need accessible housing designated options.

Several housing programs are available, including Housing for Seniors and Individuals With Disabilities, Housing Choice Vouchers, VA Supportive Housing, Domestic Violence, and Non-Elderly With Disabilities. These programs create different pathways for people who meet the listed criteria. A Walk Score of 50 places the area in the somewhat walkable band, so some errands can be done on foot, and a resident who no longer drives may be able to reach certain destinations independently. On the property, lush landscaping, winding walking paths, and benches beneath mature trees offer places to walk or sit. Walnut Park Apartments may be a good fit for a senior or person with a disability seeking independent living in a one-bedroom apartment and access to one of the listed housing programs.
