What to Consider About Assisted Living in Luray

Luray, a small town in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, is the county seat of Page County, which is home to an estimated 24,000 residents⁠, 21% of whom are senior citizens. The city is home to the Luray Caverns, underground caves that feature unique rock formations. Seniors can take a guided walking tour of the caverns, which are easily accessible by way of a step-free entrance and paved walkways. 

Luray is home to two assisted living facilities which provide 24-hour supervision and care to seniors who require round-the-clock assistance. In Luray and in all of Virginia, these facilities are regulated by the Virginia Department of Social Services

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Luray

  • The overall cost of living in Luray is 5% lower than in the average U.S. city thanks to low transportation and housing costs. Seniors on a tight budget might benefit from choosing an assisted living facility in the area. 
  • The air quality in Luray is rated 81, which is 23 points higher than the national average. This means that senior citizens can breathe the air in Luray without being worried that it may have negative effects on their health.
  • It's either raining or snowing in Luray 119 days per year on average, which is almost a third of the year. While this may be a deterrent for seniors who enjoy sunny weather, it still provides the opportunity to spend plenty of time enjoying outdoor hobbies. 
  • On a scale of 1 to 100, violent crime in Luray is rated 10, which is 12.7 points better than in the average city in the U.S. Even with low crime rates, it's always wise for seniors and their loved ones to inquire about security when touring assisted living facilities. 
  • Luray has no public transportation system to help seniors get around. When attending appointments or running errands, seniors may have to rely on facility shuttles or family members to get them where they need to go. 
  • The Luray area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Page Memorial Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
