What to Consider About Assisted Living in Masontown

Masontown is a small crossroads community in the largely rural farm country that snakes along the banks of the Monongahela River. About 130,000 people live in Fayette County, where Masontown is located, 21% of whom are seniors aged 65 and over. This small town of whitewashed fences and steepled churches has two assisted living facilities for local seniors, though others operate in surrounding communities. Assisted living communities in Pennsylvania, like all residential care facilities throughout the state, are inspected and licensed through the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services Assisted Living Residence Licensing division.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Masontown

  • The weather in Masontown sees winter lows that average just 19 degrees, while mild summers average highs of 83. Masontown is far from both the coast and the Great Lakes, but it still gets 40 inches of rain and 29 inches of snow in a typical year. Spring rain raises pollen and mold from the woods and farmland around Masontown's outskirts, which can aggravate some seniors' asthma or COPD.
  • The cost of living is relatively low in Masontown where families pay just 80% of the national average for housing, food and other bills. Seniors in Masontown pay an average of 17% less than the national median for healthcare and related expenses.
  • Crime rates are fairly low in Masontown. Across all categories of reported offenses, crime rates here are just half the national average. Seniors in Masontown are especially safe from violent crime, which is less common than relatively minor property crimes, such as theft.
  • Fayette Area Coordinated Transportation (FACT) operates numerous bus routes throughout the Masontown area. Seniors can ride FACT buses at a half-off discount with a valid ID, which may be applied for by downloading an application from the company website. All FACT buses are disabled-ride equipped, and paratransit services are complimentary for out-of-town visitors with a valid ID from their home paratransit district. 
  • The Masontown area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Uniontown Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
  • Masontown has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Masontown Senior Center on South Main Street, an organization that connects local seniors with meal service, utility assistance and referrals for local aid organizations, as well as one local senior center.
