Not every senior is looking to spend 100% of their time in a rocking chair on a front porch. Some enjoy eating at cool restaurants, hearing the sound of live music drifting through an open courtyard, and living within a community of people who still have places to be.

If your parent has always been the one who knew the best taco spot before it was on any list, city senior living may be the right fit. SoCo Village, in Austin’s iconic South Congress district, was built for exactly that kind of resident.
Our South Congress Apartments Have Personality
The South Congress district is one of Austin’s most recognized neighborhoods — and for good reason. Local galleries, acclaimed restaurants, independent boutiques, and live music venues line the streets. For seniors who have spent their lives seeking out the genuine article over the generic, our senior apartments in the South Congress district offer something most communities lack: a real address in a real neighborhood.
SoCo Village sits off Ben White Boulevard and South Congress Avenue, just behind St. Edward’s University. Our residents are within reach of Pizza Leon, Cosmic Coffee, The Austin Winery, and St. David’s South Austin Medical Center. And our transportation services take residents to appointments, shopping, and local restaurants, so no one is dependent on family to stay connected to the city they love.
Senior Living Arts and Culture in the Heart of Austin
SoCo Village’s location in central South Congress and senior living arts and culture programming reflect a younger, urban attitude toward retirement. Residents enjoy an activity center, beauty salon, fitness room, movie theater, and outdoor seating — along with daily games, social activities, and live entertainment.
Our Austin-style Southern cooking is prepared by an on-site culinary team using seasonal ingredients sourced through a dedicated food partner. So whether it’s a delicious meal, art classes, seated yoga, or group outings to local museums, every day offers meaningful ways to connect, create, and belong.
This is not passive programming; it’s assisted living and memory care built on the belief that curiosity has no expiration date.
Two Lifestyle Options Under One Roof
Local assisted living and memory care are available at SoCo Village, which matters when families are planning ahead. Our caregivers offer 24-hour care, medication management, housekeeping, laundry, and personalized care plans that we review monthly.
The Retreat, SoCo Village’s memory care wing, is a secure, separate setting of our community designed specifically for residents living with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. Our memory care team helps these seniors participate in beloved hobbies while gently encouraging them to try new activities that enrich their daily lives.
