What to Consider About Assisted Living in Hollidaysburg

Hollidaysburg is a southern suburb of Altoona, tucked within the rolling Allegheny mountains and surrounded by Pennsylvania's rich public game lands. A little more than 29% of Hollidaysburg's 5,700 people are seniors aged 65 and over, with 13 assisted living facilities around town to support them. These facilities, like all residential care communities in the state, are licensed and regulated by the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services Assisted Living Residence Licensing division.

Summertime highs average 81 degrees in July and August, while December and January lows dip to an average of 18 degrees.
