Lima Estates

Whoever was working the security gate on 7/27 around 6pm needs some sort of training. He legit refused to open the gate to let me leave because he wanted to have a conversation with someone.

Lima is the best place to spend your retirement years. There is always something to do and very pleasant people. I've been here 5 1/2 years and am so glad my husband and I chose Lima as our final home. My mom lived here for 13 years and my sister has been here 10 years so you can see, it's a family affair. We all are glad we chose Lima.

I can’t imagine a better place… It's been more than 20 years since Mom & Dad told us they were going to put the family home up for sale and were moving to Lima Estates in Media, PA. I had driven past Lima Estates countless times but knew little about it. Dad and Mom, however, were planners and had done all the research and asked all the questions I would only begin to understand as the years rolled by. My parents moved into Lima Estates in January 2006, almost 18 years ago and loved being a part of this very active, incredibly loving community. Dad passed in 2010 but not before establishing himself as an unofficial mayor of the community. Just ask anyone at Lima Estates about the Wii bowling league and there's a good chance you'll hear about Dad. Mom remained an active, independent living resident until mid-2021 when she relocated across the parking lot to OakBridge Terrace, Lima Estates’ assisted living community. Since then and until Mom’s passing a few weeks ago, the staff cared for her like she was a member of their families, with love and compassion. I never worried about the care Mom was receiving and I never worried about wearing out my welcome with too many questions about her. For nearly 20 years, the entire team at Lima Estates cared for my parents with the love and personal attention most of us reserve for family and our closest friends. I know my parents loved being a part of the Lima Estates community and I am so grateful they made this choice. I highly recommend Lima Estates to anyone looking for the ideal retirement community.

My best friend lives in Lima Estates. It's a very nice one. When my friend moved in, they redid the whole place. They renovated it. They knocked out a wall between the living room and dining room. The kitchen area is very nice. My best friend has two bathrooms, one for guests and one for her own. The food is good. They have a lot of activities. My friend is in charge of some of them sometimes. They go on field trips, and I went on some trips with them. They have continuing care, which is something she has stressed to me. If I go to dinner there, they have young kids out of college to wait on me. It's a gated community, and they have a guard in the front. They pretty much take the residents anywhere they want to go. The facility is nice. It's not too big. It's very clean. Everybody seems to enjoy their place. They're social.

Lima Estates in Media PA is truly where kindness lives. Our mom is actively engaged with her friends daily and living her best life.
