What to Consider About Assisted Living in Clinton

Clinton is a starting point for the annual Tour of Missouri bicycle race, as well as the terminus of the historic Katy Trail, a 225-mile former rail line that is now a nature walk and bicycle path running as far as Texas. Home to 9,000 people, 19% of Clinton's residents are seniors aged 65 and over. Within the city limits, no fewer than 16 assisted living facilities offer room and board, assistance with daily activities and often complimentary transportation to and from medical appointments. These facilities are licensed by the Missouri Department of Health.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Clinton

  • The weather in Clinton can be hot in summer and cold in the winter. August highs in Clinton average 89 degrees during the day, while overnight lows in December average 19. Clinton gets 13 inches of snow and 45 inches of rain in a typical year, which can sometimes raise pollen and mold counts and cause issues for seniors with asthma or COPD. 
  • The cost of living in Clinton is generally well below the national average. Seniors in Clinton pay about 19% less than the average nationwide for most personal expenses. Healthcare is an exception to this, however. Seniors in Clinton can expect to pay close to 8% more for medical care than seniors typically do across the nation.
  • Crime rates in Clinton are generally high. The reported rate of property crimes is nearly double the average for American cities the size of Clinton, though seniors are not at a significantly elevated risk of violent crime. Overall, the town's crime rates are roughly 40% above the national average in all categories combined.
  • Public transportation in Clinton is provided by the buses and vans of Clinton Transit. Clinton Transit serves much of Henry County with scheduled routes, and it offers on-demand and assisted transit services for Clinton seniors and riders with limited mobility.
  • The Clinton area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Central Ozarks Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
  • Clinton has an array of community resources for seniors, including the West Central Missouri Community Action Agency, an organization that offers seniors in Clinton assistance with late rent and mortgage payments, financial counseling and some emergency utility disconnect services, as well as five senior centers.
