As I started looking for senior housing options in Shawnee, I realized there wasn’t a single place that clearly laid out
the main choices in one spot. So I built it.
This is a practical, local guide to independent living, assisted living, and income-qualified senior housing options in Shawnee. It’s meant to help you compare choices and ask better questions without feeling overwhelmed.
What’s included here: Housing and lifestyle options.
What’s not included: Nursing homes and skilled nursing facilities. Those decisions usually involve
medical care planning and deserve a separate conversation.
| Property Name | Address | Contact Info |
|---|---|---|
The AldridgeWhat to knowAlso income-qualified (LIHTC). A good first question is, “What are the current income limits and do you have a waitlist right now?” | 20 E 9th St Shawnee, OK 74801 | 405-275-9500 Info from the Visit Shawnee Website |
Brookdale Senior LivingWhat to knowThis is assisted living, so it’s more support-focused than independent living. Ask how care levels work and how pricing changes if additional assistance becomes needed over time. | 3947 N Kickapoo Ave Shawnee, OK 74804 | 405-275-7747 Website |
Cottage ParkThis property is intended and operated for occupancy by persons 62 years of age or older. | 1625 Cottage Ct Shawnee, OK 74804 | 405-500-7115 Website |
The Cottages at The Bridges III![]() What to knowThis appears to be a purchase-style independent living option. Before touring, confirm HOA details, what maintenance is covered, and any age or occupancy rules so expectations are clear. | Augusta Dr Shawnee, OK 74801 | View Homes for Sale |
The GroveWhat to knowThis one is typically about lifestyle and convenience. When touring, ask what is included versus optional, especially meals, transportation, housekeeping, and activities. | 3900 N Union Ave Shawnee, OK 74804 | 405-777-4030 Website |
Independence TowersWhat to knowOften described locally as “the other tower.” Like other subsidized options, availability and eligibility rules can change, so a quick call up front can save a lot of time. | 1130 E Independence St Shawnee, OK 74804 | TELEPHONE UNCONFIRMED Google Business Page |
Legacy Park ApartmentsWhat to knowThis is income-qualified housing (LIHTC), so availability and requirements can change. From client experience, it helps to ask early about the waitlist and exactly what income documents they need so you don’t waste time. | 1701 N Airport Dr Shawnee, OK 74804 | 405-878-8787 Google Business Page |
Primrose Retirement CommunityWhat to knowA strong option for people who want independence now, plus the ability to add support later if life changes. From client experience, this can be a smooth landing spot after selling a long-time home because it reduces maintenance stress without feeling like a “facility.” | 1905 N Bryan Ave Shawnee, OK 74804 | 405-273-0925 Website |
Shawnee High RiseWhat to knowThis is one of the most commonly referenced subsidized senior apartment options in Shawnee. Because program rules and openings change, call to confirm eligibility requirements and current availability. | 101 W 10th St Shawnee, OK 74804 | TELEPHONE UNCONFIRMED Website |
How I Help With Rightsizing Moves

Rightsizing is rarely just about square footage. It’s about timing, emotions, finances, and making sure today’s decision
still works tomorrow.
I help people think through the move, coordinate the sale of a long-time home when needed, and compare housing options
realistically, not optimistically. Sometimes that leads to a real estate transaction. Sometimes it just leads to clarity.
If you want help connecting the dots between housing choice, timing, and what to do with the home you own now, I’m happy
to talk through it.
