What to Consider About Assisted Living in Metamora

Metamora's name is taken from a Native American word that means "among the hills." This aptly named city sits about 900 feet above Lake Metamora, 1,280 feet at its tallest point, and is noted for its beautiful countryside. The community is home to a little over 4,000 people, nearly one in five of whom are aged 65 and over.  

To support the growing senior population, Metamora has two assisted living facilities, and there are 15 more nearby. These facilities are officially called homes for the age, as they only serve adults age 60 and over, and they are licensed by the Michigan  Department of Health and Human Services

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Metamora

  • Metamora's summers tend to be mild with highs of 82 degrees, which may appeal to seniors who are sensitive to extreme heat. Winters are very cold with lows around 15. As they're touring assisted living facilities, seniors may want to seek out facilities with individual climate control to ensure comfort through the cold months. 
  • Metamora is an exceptionally safe place to live, with a safety index of 88. This indicates that the city is safer than 88% of all U.S. cities. When compared only to similarly sized cities, Metamora's crime rate is considerably below average. This may provide peace of mind for seniors moving to a local assisted living facility. 
  • Michigan seniors do not pay state income tax on Social Security benefits, and there is a deduction for all other types of retirement income. This may leave more money in the budget for assisted living expenses in Metamora.  
  • The Metamora area has few facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital located in Lapeer.
  • The cost of living in Metamora is about 17% higher than the national average and 10% higher than the statewide average, which may be a consideration for seniors who have a tight retirement budget.    
  • Public transportation in Metamora is provided by the Greater Lapeer Transportation Authority. Older adults age 60 and over are eligible to ride for half-fare.
