Bexton Place

Bexton Place is a three-story apartment community specifically designed for older adults who are at least 62 years of age.  There are 54 one-bedroom units, four of which are handicapped accessible units designed to benefit the mobility, hearing or visually impaired.

The community is ideally located within a lovely, partially wooded residential area and in close proximity to restaurants, retail business, churches, medical and dental offices, and public transportation.

Bexton Place features a community room with a kitchen to be used by the residents for a variety of social, educational, and recreational activities. The entry lobby and library area provides a friendly environment for the residents to socialize.

There is a computer room set up for the residents to use. There is also a laundry room equipped with coin-operated washers and dryers to allow residents to do their laundry on site. A crafts room is also available for residents to work on projects.

The management offices are located on site for convenient communication for the residents. There are supportive maintenance areas dedicated to the continued maintenance and operation of the community. There are trash collection rooms/chutes on each floor.

The community is securely maintained with a “key fob” front entry system for the residents and an intercom system for the residents’ guests and family.

Each resident’s unit is accessed through interior corridors. The typical unit design provides for one bedroom, a kitchen (with a counter, refrigerator, range, and vent), a living room/dining room area and a full bathroom.

The mobility impaired, accessible units have roll-in showers for ease of access for those residents in wheel chairs. They also have appropriate appliances, counters and sinks, and turning radius to meet the special needs of the mobility impaired.

What type of housing is Bexton Place? Is it low-income housing?

Bexton Place is a subsidized housing community for seniors aged 62 & over.  The term “subsidized housing” means that the rent is based on income.  A resident of the community pays approximately 30% of their income as rent.

Who pays the remainder of the rent?

The remainder of the rent is paid in the form of a subsidy.  If a resident qualifies for a subsidy, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), a U.S. government agency, will pay the remainder of the rent.

How is rent calculated?

Resident rent is based on approximately 30% of income.  A good estimate of your rent would be to take 30% of your gross annual income and divide it by 12 months.  This will give you an estimate of what your monthly rent could be.

What does the rent include?

Monthly rental of the apartment, as well as hot water, & trash. A utility allowance of $ 42.00 is the allowance that is deducted off of the resident’s rent payment (meant to help the resident pay the utility bills). The allowance amount is based on average usage for the apartment and may change annually. Residents will still receive a utility bill for the electricity they use for their apartments. Residents may still be eligible for energy assistance from the state.
