Overview of Knopp Retirement Center
Knopp Retirement Center is a licensed senior living community in Fredericksburg, Texas, offering assisted living services. Managed as a family-owned enterprise under Knopp Retirement Center Inc., the community has a Type B license in Gillespie County. Operating since 1965 with a 60-bed capacity, it is one of the most enduring providers for older adults in the area.
In terms of state oversight, the most recent evaluation performed on April 27, 2023, identified five Health Code deficiencies, which involved delays in creating and starting individual service plans, gaps in annual background verifications through national and state registries, inadequate tuberculosis testing for staff, the absence of a yearly fire marshal review, and questions about food procurement from approved vendors. Notably, every concern was resolved between April 28 and June 9, 2023. No Life Safety Code deficiencies were found, and the community has faced zero enforcement actions, which is a better record than the Texas average of one. With five citations against a state average of six, the total volume of findings is slightly below the regional benchmark.
The community delivers assisted living and long-term support with a focus on empathy, dignity, and personal care, which are principles rooted in its independent family legacy. Available on-site clinical services also consist of physical, occupational, and speech therapy, positioning this location as a practical choice for older adults who need consistent rehabilitative help without relocating.
Providing assisted living, memory care capabilities, and on-site therapeutic support, Knopp Retirement Center is a good option for older adults who aim to age in place in the Fredericksburg region and the wider Hill Country and prefer a more intimate, family-run atmosphere with deep local roots.
