Retirement Community Living

Ever wonder what community life is really like? For some, it’s feeling a sense of safety, security, and belonging. For others it’s about convenience and support—an understanding that everything you could possibly need or desire is available to you. At Friendship Village of Bloomington, community living is all of that—it is so much more than you ever imagined.

So many good things happen here that I would have missed out on if I had stayed alone in my house. My life would not be as rich as it is today.

Independent Living Activities

Hear that? It's the sound of Bloomington’s own Medalist Concert Band, performing Broadway favorites in the auditorium. Nearby, a painting class is just getting underway, led by a local artist. Tonight, there’s a silent auction to support a new community garden project. Everywhere you turn, there’s not only something to do, but people to enjoy it with.

The programming opportunities that they provide are excellent. They give us the physical activities that we need, the mental activities that we need, spiritual, too - they treat the whole body beautifully.
