What to Consider About Assisted Living in Pennsburg

Pennsburg is a very small borough in Pennsylvania, which covers less than one square mile of space. However, there are almost 4,000 residents within this area, some of which are seniors aged 65 years or older living in the borough's two assisted living facilities.

Assisted living facilities in Pennsylvania are classified as either adult care homes or assisted living residences, depending on what services and care the staff provides. The Department of Public Welfare oversees adult care homes, and the Department of Aging covers assisted living residences. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Pennsburg

  • Pennsburg and the rest of Montgomery County gets an F rating for its ozone levels from the American Lung Association. This could make it more difficult for seniors with breathing issues to stay comfortable.
  • Most forms of retirement income, including IRAs, Social Security, pensions and 401(k)s are not taxed in the state of Pennsylvania. Sales tax rates are also low compared to the rest of the country, which makes the Pennsburg area a good choice for retirees concerned about living on a fixed income.
  • Pennsburg has no facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital located in Sellersville.
  • Pennsburg has an array of community resources for seniors, including the The Open Link, an organization that helps connect residents with beneficial services and supports community outreach, as well as one senior center.
  • The Pennsburg area has a cost of living that's just a bit (2 percent) above the national and state averages. Healthcare and housing come in 1 and 4 percent above the state average, respectively, but utilities are 2 percent lower. This means that seniors won't have to worry about a high cost of living taking more money out of their budgets.
  • Overall crime rates in the Pennsburg area are 67 percent lower than the U.S. average, and this borough is safer than a full 74 percent of cities across the country. The low crime may help seniors feel safer in assisted living facilities.
