We toured The Buckingham, and it was very nice. It was the second that we would have chosen, if we hadn't gone with the other community. It was just very professional. The guy that gave us the tour gave us the answer to all of the questions. We visited with some people very briefly that were there, and they were all positive. It just looked like it would be a nice place to live.
It was clean and big. They had a swimming pool and trails. The apartments were very nice. They had one on the bottom floor, which was attractive to us because we had a pet. We thought about it, but we decided that we could go with an upper floor. The meal plan and everything that they had was good.
The only reason we went with another facility is that they were going to bankruptcy. We just felt like that was a negative that kept us from going to them.
They got a lot of nice features and several different living areas. We were able to see three different apartments.

The Buckingham is probably the premier place, but they're quite expensive and require you to buy your apartment. They have a flexible meal plan which we like. The thing I don't like about them is it's practically in Katy. There are a lot of people live out there that think the location is wonderful, but it's kind of out of the way. Their facilities and their amenities were absolutely top notch. They have all sorts of play and work activities. You can do your own thing. I've known about them for 20 years and I would recommend them if you don't mind living halfway to Katy.

The Buckingham was very nice. It was located in a nice area, but it was out of our league. You have to buy-in, which was non-refundable, plus the monthly fee. The place looked elegant and fancy. They seemed to have all the things that will make their residents happy. They had activities, a library, and shuttles to the medical center. They had areas for independent living, assisted living, and areas as you grow older like a health center. They had valet services, nice furniture, and uniformed and nicely-dressed staff. They have two or three restaurants and cafeterias.

We visited The Buckingham on a weekend, so we didn't have the person who normally gives the tour. The staff was very nice, but we didn't see the room nor talk about the cost. We liked what we saw, including the activity room, the place where they had physical therapy, and the eating area. They were among the top communities that I saw. I was impressed with the place; it was beautiful and had a homey but classy feel to it.

I was able to visit Buckingham as this facility is a very well known place. It’s a high end facility and also expensive. I have eaten there, and I can say that it's more of a resort-retirement lifestyle. They have so many activities. It’s a beautiful facility. Every single staff there was professional and generally accustomed to dealing with their clients. They treated them with respect and regard. The apartments there are beautiful. They have a very tight security in which they have a guard and a gated entry.
