Serving Texas
Seniors Since 1954

For generations, Buckner has served senior adults with integrity and distinction. As a mission-driven nonprofit organization, Buckner is guided by purpose rather than profit, allowing decisions to be made with long-term well-being, stability, and quality of care in mind. That experience brings confidence to residents and peace of mind to their families.

From Our Residents

"If I have to choose the one thing I enjoy most about BRC San Angelo, it is simply that it is a Community. We have an outstanding cafe, beautiful chapel, a number of Bible classes, services, prayer meetings, etc, a myriad of available activities, as well as outside trips with provided transport to shopping, special events and of course medical appointments. Too many services to mention and an outstanding, proficient and friendly staff."

Cynthia Hickey Resident - Baptist Retirement

"It’s a great place to live. We help each, check on each other, join others for potlucks or meals at Main street cafe, play games, have musical entertainment, etc. We have medical support from our nurse practitioner all the way to skilled nursing. There are many more extras here to support our needs and many things to do and to provide for our interest and our entertainment."

Bruce McLaren Resident - Baptist Retirement

"I most enjoy being a part of a place where there are caring, friendly individuals. The staff is concerned about each resident, and strives to make sure that everyone is cared for in a respectful manner."

Community Resident Resident - Baptist Retirement

"I tell others how fortunate we are to live in a wonderful BRC community filled with many other people about our age.The Cafe is marvelous with good cooking and helpers. The Chapel is wonderful and I love hearing the bells during the day. I also enjoy sitting on a bench swing set in our small park area. That is where I hear the chapel bells the best."

What makes
Buckner Different?

We're a nonprofit senior living provider

Buckner is a nonprofit service provider versus for-profit, meaning your financial investment is re-invested into the communities themselves to preserve the longevity and financial sustainability of the communities instead of meeting a shareholder’s bottom line objective.

Promises made and promises kept

Based on the consolidated 2023 audit for Buckner International and its subsidiaries, the consolidated net assets as of December 31, 2023 were $532 million. A factor that is important to Buckner Retirement Services, Inc. as well as current and future residents is ensuring the organization’s long-term ability to honor resident agreements and refunds as outlined thereunder.

Buckner’s obligated group of communities which includes communities in Austin, Beaumont, Houston and Longview, Texas have a combined Fitch financial strength rating of BBB+ indicating that expectations of default risk are currently low.

We bring a legacy of strength and stability

Buckner has a long history of serving seniors. Buckner was founded in 1879 and the first Buckner senior living community opened in 1954. However, the Buckner mission to serve seniors dates back to the early days of the ministry when aging widows lived at the Buckner Orphans Home and helped care for the children. Organizations do not last for more than 145 years unless they are operated wisely. Never in the history of Buckner has a program, location, or ministry been allowed to fail. Buckner has never lost any of asset to bankruptcy or mismanagement and Buckner has never missed a debt service payment or defaulted on a loan. Buckner has had one pre-planned bankruptcy as part of the debt restructuring for the acquisition of a new community.

We take a long-term approach to senior living

Buckner’s approach prioritizes consistency, thoughtful planning, and continuity of care. Communities are designed to adapt as needs change, helping reduce disruption while preserving familiarity and stability.

We offer a balance of stability and independence to residents and members

Buckner gives residents the ease of maintenance-free living with the added benefit of our signature hospitality and service. We’re best known for providing residents with a deep sense of community, purpose, and connection while prioritizing independence and freedom of choice in daily living through lifestyle and wellness programming, a diverse culinary experience, and a range of living accommodations.
