The El Dorado Description
Cherry blossoms and crape myrtle adorn The El Dorado, a peaceful Richardson senior living community in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Surrounded by golf courses, the campus is near Interstate 75, local shops and restaurants, and the famed Eisemann Center for Performing Arts. Other local attractions include Topgolf Dallas, Dallas Cowboys games at AT&T Stadium and the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History.
Residents appreciate the freedom and flexibility our independent living communities offer as needs around personal care and medical assistance change. Choosing a la carte from third-party health care and personal care providers* -- many with offices right inside the community -- gives them the power to choose their providers and obtain similar services as they would in a higher level of care like assisted living, but without giving up the independence, warm community of friends, and fun-loving atmosphere they enjoy so much.
