What to Consider About Assisted Living in Barboursville

Barboursville, which is nicknamed The Best Little Village in the State, has a history that stretches back to 1813. Today, the quaint community hosts a variety of year-round events for seniors to enjoy, including its Civil Wars Days, where visitors can witness reenactments. 

Cabell County, the county in which Barboursville is located, is home to close to 95,000 people, roughly 18 percent of whom are over the age of 65. To support its local seniors, the city has three assisted living facilities, and there are another 16 located nearby. These facilities are licensed by the Department of Health and Human Resources, Bureau for Public Health, Office of Health Facilities Licensure and Certification.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Barboursville

  • Barboursville's overall cost of living is on par with the state average and about 14 percent lower than the national average. Health care and groceries cost about 6 percent less here than elsewhere in the country, which may let seniors put more money toward assisted living.
  • Barboursville's summers are hot and humid with highs in the mid-80s, while the winters are short and cold with lows in the 20s. The area receives 15 inches of snow annually, compared to the national average annual snowfall of 26 inches, which may benefit seniors who enjoy being active in the community.
  • Barboursville's property crime and violent crime scores are 71.2 and 32.8, compared to the national averages of 38.1 and 31.1, respectively. To ensure residents' safety, assisted living facilities have security systems, though seniors should practice caution with vehicles and personal belongings when they're out and about.
  • Cabell County has decent air quality, which may be beneficial for seniors with COPD, asthma and other respiratory conditions. The county was given a C for ozone pollution and an A for short-term particle pollution by the American Lung Association. 
  • West Virginia is among the few states that tax Social Security benefits, as well as other types of retirement income. However, seniors may be able to claim deductions to offset those taxes.
