What to Consider About Assisted Living in Milford

Part of the New York metropolitan area, the borough of Milford is small town of 10,091 residents with a large senior population of almost 17 percent. There are two assisted living facilities with a further 17 located nearby for seniors who require assistance with activities and tasks associated with daily living.

Milford’s assisted living facilities, also known as personal care homes, will are licensed and regulated by the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Milford

  • Milford has an array of resources for seniors, including the Milford Senior Center, which offers arts and crafts classes, yoga, Zumba, stretching, choir, support groups and a literary lunch book group.

  • The Milford area is home to world-class medical facilities, including the Lehigh Valley Hospital Pocono, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.

  • Perhaps owing to its location in the New York metropolitan area, the cost of living index in Milford of 113 is higher than the national average of 100. The higher cost can impact seniors’ budgets.

  • Milford and its neighboring communities feature cultural attractions that seniors may enjoy such as the renowned Black Bear Film Festival, Columns Museum and the Upper Mill. 

  • Pennsylvania does not generally tax seniors’ withdrawals from 401k or work retirement accounts. The state also does not tax social security checks. This leaves more funds in seniors’ budgets. 

  • Safety is important to seniors and Milford's high crime rate may be a concern. Milford is associated with an annual crime rate of 3,498 per 100,000 people, which is higher than the national average of 2,837.

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Milford

Unlike many states, Pennsylvania doesn't provide financial assistance for care at an assisted living facility. The state only offers financial assistance waivers for seniors who require nursing home care or who require support for living at home. Even so, qualifying seniors receiving SSI may still be eligible for the state to pay a supplement for care at an assisted living facility. However, there is often a waiting list for these funds as that state has a cap on the amount it may spend. 

Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Pennsylvania page.
