      Thanks for posting, jfkoc. There is a village similar to this near San Diego. I will try to search for the website.

      I did not get a paywall and I was able to read the entire article. The place I was thinking of is George G. Glenner Alzheimer's Family Center www.glenner.org. Take a look. https://glenner.org/
