Reading Commons, is at the center of major highways. 93 north and south, 95 north and south. For the most part, people are friendly, the grounds are well kept and maintenance is great. Office staff are very helpful. We enjoy being here

We were so lucky to end up at Reading Commons. Between the ideal location, helpful staff, spacious living space, ample parking, and pool, it has been an incredible experience so far. No complaints, looking forward to the rest of 2020 and beyond.
