The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Property Ratings at The Dorchester
We enjoy life at The Manor. We have a separate Dining Room where we can eat if we want to. We have a fully equipped kitchen and individual clothes washing. We also control our own heat and A/C. People are very friendly here and there are activities that we can participate in. There is also a bus that takes us to various places around the area.
Maintenance team is prompt and responsive to our service needs every time! Richard Davies
I have been happy living here for nearly 17 years and will continue to live here as long as I can because I feel safe here and enjoy the friendship of wonderful residents.
Very nice place for Seniors to live....with the exception of the changeover to new service providers for phone/internet/tv DISRUPTION, which has/will create much confusion among older residents....all of which was un-necessary to begin with (jmho)
I have enjoyed living here.This is a new journey in my life. Sometimes we have to make choices in our life that we would rather not make, but I feel this was a good choice. I have enjoyed meeting new people. Everyone has been very friendly and the staff has been helpful.
I have been very pleased with the family atmosphere of the residents here. Administration seems to be on the ball and responds promptly and professionally when I need them. Prices reasonable. Happy atmosphere.
I moved here in December and so far I have enjoyed living here. Everyone seems to be friendly and helpful.There are plenty of activities you can be busy all of the time if you chose to be.
We are very pleased with the rapid response we get when we call with a problem.
Over the past three years as a satisfied resident at Manor2, I've much appreciated the "quiteness" of my apartment (location). Overall I'm pleased with the productivity and kindness of the staff members. In this community of about 250 residents, several staff members remember and call most (all) residents by their first names!! The amenities are excellent with all utilities except phone included in rent. I've always been impressed with the quality and variety of daily activities that residents can participate in!! Dorchester=Manor is an impressive community for Seniors to reside at. SR 06-04-25
Nice place to live. Activities are great. Staff is very good . Personal is so good to me. All activities keep us going . So many things offered to enjoy in dining room. Wish dining room was open on weekends. When you don’t drive not easy to have food available to eat.
I have only lived here just shy of 6 months. Everyone has been friendly and helpful. I am new to the area coming from a Midwestern state to be near family. Management has been helpful with any problem or concern I have encountered. So far I am enjoying living here.
I have been here over 10 years.Manor 2 provides all my physical and mental needs.Nothing in life is perfect however,Manor 2 is a wonderful,comfortable,secure home
Everything about the buildings, the community, the residents and all of the staff is simply supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!!!
Living at The Manor has taken away all the worries of home owning and made life a lot easier.
Great beautiful homey place to live. I love everything about living here. Would recommend living here to every one looking for a great way to live retirement life. Administration excellent Staff. Front desk helps with all our needs.
The Manor is everything we need. Our apartment is spacious and it is nice not to have to be concerned about maintaining a house anymore; everything is taken care of for us here. They have a good variety of activities here also, including shopping trips and eating out. We even have our cat.
Any new resident would be please with how consistently QUIET it is living here. And no more multiple bills to pay....only the rent and phone. Residents are friendly and staff members are responsive to your needs.
The staff and the community made it very easy to pick this community. The move-in process was was very good. It was a great choice for me.
Everything has been great since I moved in two weeks ago. Everyone is friendly and I will enjoy this place very much.
Overall, after 3 plus weeks at the Manor apt, I have been reasonably pleased with my decision to move here. The most impressive observation is the level of "quietness" around my apartment....in all the halls.... and outside the building. The air conditioning settings in my apt. may need some altered adustments.
you get it all here lots of good friends tons of things to keep you active Social meeting to have fun with music ice-cream and fooooood from some of best cooks around
The Manor is a wonderful place to live. It has everything I could want in a 55 and over non-smoking community: it is extremely quiet, as if located on a country road and yet is very close to doctors' offices, medical facilities and shopping, the apartments are spacious and clean, the pricing is fair, the staff is exceptionally qualified and responsive to our requests and needs (always with a gracious and respectful attitude), it offers a wide variety of activities and special events, it provides bus transportation to grocery stores, restaurants and events, and, perhaps most important, our neighbors are kind and gentle people with whom we can share quality friendships only to the extent that we want.
Staff is very helpful and friendly. They try to answer any questions,we have.
Great place to live management dining room maintence activities workers are great. Love living here.
The Manor 3 is gorgeous with an appliances as well as a laundry room. The ceilings are 12’ high with plenty of windows to bring in the sunshine. We have a handicapped apartment. It allows my husband to do anything he wishes. Our apartment was redecorated with light blue walls. Our rooms are spacious. The staff are very friendly and kind. The food is wonderful. Everywhere you go it is beautifully appointed. It is a delight to live here. If anyone is looking for a new apartment, please come here.
well maintained property. Management promptly responds to tenant concerns.
Comfortable setting, good value, complex activities available, quiet and safe environment.
I would highly recommend this community. It is a safe and friendly environment to live in.
This is the most beautiful apartment I’ve ever seen. It is spacious with all of the amenities. Great for a fully handicapped place. Everyone here is very kind friendly and eager to help with smiles on their faces and cheerful voices. We are thrilled thankful to be here
To me the Manor III staff including maintenance are all very friendly and cooperative
Oh, come on. I don't want to verbalize any more. I've already said I'm pleased.
The Manor offers a great location and price. The staff is excellent and responsive to resident needs!
Apartments at the Manor are roomy and very nice. The lobby is beautiful and a great place to gather. I have been very happy for these two months.
I have only been here a few weeks but I have found the Manor a very well managed place. the team has always been friendly and courteous.
Love living here with wonderful neighbors and lots of activities. Couldnt ask for a better staff.
We feel very safe here at the manor 2. The staff go out of their way to be courteous and helpful to us. Hoping for some upgrades in appliances and flooring before our next lease comes up.
