What to Consider About Assisted Living in Dayton

The city of Dayton has about 7,200 people and is located in the southeastern region of Tennessee. An estimated 1,100 residents are aged 65 and over, making seniors the second largest age demographic group in the city. These seniors receive services through the Southeast Tennessee Area Agency on Aging, an organization that provides non-medical transportation, nutrition services and support programs, as well as one senior center. 

Many of these seniors, who are no longer able to safely live alone, reside in one of the area’s assisted living facilities. Dayton in-home to three of these facilities, and there is one more about six miles away in Graysville. In Dayton, as in the rest of the state, assisted living facilities are governed by the Tennessee Department of Health. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Dayton

  • Tennessee doesn’t have a state income tax for any type of income, including retirement income. This may enable seniors in the Dayton region to put more money toward local assisted living expenses.  
  • The Dayton area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Rhea Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness. 
  • With a cost of living that is considerably lower than state and national averages, Dayton may be a good option for seniors with limited assisted living budgets. On a 100-point index based on the national median, this city's cost of living is 77.7, which is about 10 points lower than the state average.
  • While Dayton's violent crime rate is on par with the national average, property crime is relatively prevalent in Dayton. Seniors may want to complete shopping trips and other errands during outings organized by their assisted living facility.  
  • Compared to the rest of the state, Dayton's climate is slightly cooler with year-round temperatures ranging between 27 and 88 degrees. The city gets just 4 inches of snow annually, which may make mobility easy for seniors who rely on aids like canes or walkers. 
  • On a 100-point health index, the air quality in Dayton is rated 67, which is almost 10 points higher than the national average. The city may be well-suited to seniors with chronic conditions like asthma or COPD.
