    I thought the Discovery Village at the Forum was pretty attractive and well-maintained. I am familiar with others who have visited and are pleased. Everything is there because we anticipate that eventually my spouse will need memory care. They're fulfilling a real need, and I'm amazed at how far they've come. Since they keep building, it's a great place to live. If the location were bad, people wouldn't move there in the first place. I can only say great things about each and every one of them because they were all excellent. We just had to move to https://silvergaterr.com/resident-life-senior-living/ because of my sister.
