“This place is awesome! Have made a ton of friends. Everyone here is so friendly! The food is amazing- haven’t had a bad meal yet. Also the campus is gorgeous with lots of trees and flowers. Wish I’d moved in 5 years earlier! Ten, even. There is so much to do from woodworking to Trivia to dance class to field trips. Best part: sitting in a comfy chair on the patio with a frosty beverage and watching someone ELSE mow.”

“My husband, Herb and I, are on the waiting list for an apartment in The Fairlax. We have worked with Aubrey Green. We have been so impressed with Aubrey and all of the First Community's campus. Aubrey has taken us on many tours, as family in and out of town wanted to see where we will be spending the next chapter of our lives, having lived in the same house in Arlington for over 51 years. Aubrey is knowledgeable, sincere, warm and so nice. She understands our feelings about making this move and has guided us appropriately. Thank you, Aubrey!”

“As a past UA resident 20 yrs.ago. I was familiar with First Community Village. I knew when the time came that would be my first choice. the transition to the Village was first Class living in every way. Our Condo is beautiful. We describe living here in Independent Living as living at a resort. The Staff, the dining and the beautiful grounds all add up to A plus living.”

“As I was trying to score my experienc with the stars, my screen kept going in & out, but I see it gave me the 5 star rating I was trying to reach. I've never had this happen before with any rating system 😳 I have used. Over all your community is great! If I should ever need this type of care.." FCV" will be at the top of my list. Thank-you all for the wonderful work you do in keeping our loved ones & friends in a safe, & secure environment!!! Sincerely Desiree Page.”

“Beware when you choose this facility that the facility and the doctors that work in the facility bill separately. I was surprised when the Dr. bills started arriving that my secondary insurance (Medicare Supplement) was not a provider for the physicians group that were working & billing at the facility. When they said they accepted both my insurances, that meant the facility accepted my insurances. They never mentioned that there is a separate a physician group working within the facility. Check the physicians group on your secondary insurance because the admitting people don't mention this twist when you check in.”

“First Community Village has exceeded our exceptions.”
– Ronald Coosaia
