What to Consider About Assisted Living in Henrico

Henrico County, Virginia, has plenty to offer history buffs, being the site of a settlement in 1634. Since it borders Richmond, it also offers seniors access to plenty of modern entertainment options, making it a choice for older adults who want to live in the moment while continuing to learn about the past.

Seniors interested in independent community living may want to consider one of the 25 assisted living facilities within Henrico County. Assisted living facilities in the state of Virginia must be licensed by the state's Department of Social Services, so older adults and their loved ones can have peace of mind that communities are staffed by properly licensed staff and offer safe, secure living environments.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Henrico

  • The Henrico County area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Henrico Doctors' Hospital and multiple Bon Secours facilities, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
  • Henrico County has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Advocate for the Aging's Office, an organization that provides referrals and helps seniors access resources as well as more than three senior centers.
  • The cost of living in Henrico County is higher than the national average but lower than in nearby Richmond, making it a less expensive place to live for seniors who want to settle in the area.
  • While the area averages just over a foot of snow a year, it also gets more than 200 sunny days and has a mild average temperature, so seniors who love the outdoors may decide they love it here.
  • The state of Virginia doesn't tax Social Security income, and up to $12,000 in pension payments and other qualifying retirement disbursements can be deducted from taxable income, allowing seniors to have more buying power.
  • Henrico County does not have an ideal track record when it comes to crime, only coming in just above 25 percent of other cities in the nation. This is something seniors will need to consider, although the security elements within an assisted living community can help increase peach of mind.
