What to Consider About Assisted Living in Flint

Situated along the Flint River, the city of Flint is the largest city in Genesee County. In 2015 Flint was declared to be in a state of emergency due to leaching of lead into drinking water. Since then, residents have been urged not to drink or bathe in the water without running it through a NSF certified water filter. Pipe replacement is long-term, ongoing project to fix the problem. Senior residents should only drink and bathe in bottled or filtered water until the state of emergency is cleared. There are 42 assisted living facilities in Flint, Michigan area, all of which are regulated by the Michigan Bureau of Child and Adult Licensing. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Flint

  • Located in east-central Michigan along the Flint River, Flint is known for its warm summers and cold, snowy winters. The average high temperature in January is 30 degrees Fahrenheit and 82 degrees Fahrenheit in July.

  • Flint is home to the Valley Area Agency on Aging, which provides a number of services for residents aged 60 and older, including meals on wheels, exercise programs and senior bus transportation. There are also three senior centers within the city limits.

  • Crime, particularly theft and property crime, is a growing problem in Flint as it is in many other parts of Michigan. Although the crime rate in Flint has decreased slightly in recent years, it is still 76 percent higher than the national average.

  • The Flint area is home to world-class medical facilities including McLaren Flint Medical Center and Hurley Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.

The Michigan Smart Bus system offers curb-to-curb service to points within 10 miles (with advanced reservations), making it an ideal option for seniors who can't walk far.
