Never before has home ownership been so easy. That’s because the Village Cooperative of Billings is a community for active adults, aged 62 plus, who want home ownership without the maintenance, repairs or unexpected bills, and to be close to family and friends at an excellent value.

“We pursued membership in the Village Cooperative because it is our best option to age gracefully — remain independent, active, socially engaged and travel frequently — plus it’s financially reasonable, said Jim and Terri Mourich, Village Cooperative members.
The Village Cooperative of Billings will be under construction soon and features 58 homes in one bedroom, two bedrooms and two bedrooms with a den, built specifically for active adults — working or retired.
The homes range in size from approximately 900 square feet to over 1,500 square feet of one-level living space within in a three-story building, with secured underground parking. Those who reserve early will be able to choose interior finishes for their homes.

“We chose the Village Cooperative of Billings as our next home because of the maintenance-free lifestyle and the security that it provides,” said Frank and Trudy Carey, Village Cooperative members. “We made the decision to move for our benefit and for the benefit of our family. We look forward to being surrounded by like-minded, optimistic neighbors who also look forward to active living for many years to come.”
That’s because the Village Cooperative is a community of peers who want to be active with other people their age, but not in assisted living. It offers maintenance-free living with all the benefits of home ownership and none of the headaches, plus many unique amenities that are suited for both working and retired residents. At the Village Cooperative, you are in control — all in a secure setting — to enjoy the things that matter to you without the worries of upkeep or repair bills.
The Mouriches added, “While we’re doing this earlier in life than we thought we ‘should,’ we’re finding the decision has been very helpful — downsizing and simplifying our lives, thus taking some unnecessary weight off our shoulders. Our family has been very supportive of the decision. In fact, our kids have been a catalyst in this move while we enjoy reliving memories during the process.”
