What to Consider About Assisted Living in Hudsonville

Assisted living facilities in Hudsonville meet Michigan’s Bureau of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs’ minimum licensing standards for operation. These include the scope of services facilities provide along with rules related to housing, care planning and staffing. The department also investigates complaints regarding substandard treatment or living conditions.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Hudsonville

 

  • Hudsonville has a strong score of 59 on the AARP Livability Index compared to the average city score of 48, meaning it's more favorable for seniors than most U.S. communities. The city’s strong economy and age-group diversity create a vibrant environment for retirees, and good air and water quality support seniors’ health and comfort. Additionally, the city’s preventable hospitalization rate of 23.3 hospitalizations per 100,000 people is well below the nation’s norm of 38.2, and about 74% of hospital patients report satisfaction with their care.

 

  • Hudsonville’s crime rate comes in lower than 52% of U.S. communities and 49% of Michigan communities, and it's low compared to other communities with its population size, fostering a safe environment for assisted living residents. Residents have a 1 in 771 chance of becoming victims of violent crimes, which is average across all cities. While the majority of the crime that occurs here relates to property theft or damage, assisted living facilities have measures such as security gates to keep residents and their belongings safe.

 

  • Michigan has a large income tax deduction to reduce what seniors owe for pension income and withdrawals from retirement accounts, and it doesn’t tax Social Security benefits. As a result, assisted living residents retain more of their income, helping them cover long-term care services.

 

  • Overall, Hudsonville’s cost of living reflects the national average, although residents pay below-average rates for living expenses, such as housing, health care and utilities. This, along with the state’s MI Choice Waiver Program for qualified individuals, puts local assisted living rates within many seniors’ budgets.

 

  • Ottawa County, where Hudsonville sits, ranks third for health out of the state’s 83 ranked counties. It has one of the highest life expectancies in the United States, with residents living an average of 81.3 years compared to 78.5 nationally and 77.5 statewide, and high compliance with the CDC’s flu vaccine recommendations helps slow the spread of seasonal illnesses in assisted living facilities.
