What to Consider About Assisted Living in Ogden

Assisted living facilities in Ogden follow rules set by the Division of Health and Human Services, Health Facility Licensing, Certification and Resident Assessment. This division promotes high-quality care for residents by ensuring buildings comply with safety standards, conducting staff background checks and investigating complaints regarding conditions or care standards.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Ogden

  • Ogden’s overall cost of living is on par with the national average and about 15 percentage points lower than the state norm, making it a financially sound option for many older adults with restrictive incomes. Housing is a little more expensive here than in other U.S. cities, but seniors can avoid related expenses by opting for assisted living.
  • On a 100-point index, Ogden’s violent crime is rated about five points higher than the national average at 27.8, and its property crime rate is nearly 30 points higher at 62.3, indicating that crime is more prevalent here than in the typical U.S. city. To provide safety and peace of mind for residents, assisted living facilities typically have high-security locks, well-lit parking lots and surveillance cameras.
  • There are approximately 223 sunny days annually in Ogden compared to the national average of 205, and year-round temperatures range from 19 to 91 degrees. To help residents stay active throughout the year, assisted living facilities host indoor and outdoor social and recreational activities.
  • There are 133 doctors per capita in Ogden, which is notably lower than the national rate of 210 and may impact wait times to see specialists and primary care providers. Even so, there are two hospitals located within the city, McKay Dee Hospital and Ogden Regional Medical Center, and nearly two dozen more are located within 50 miles.
  • Utah is one of the few states to tax Social Security benefits, along with all other types of retirement income, including pension income and withdrawals from investment accounts. However, seniors can apply for a small credit to offset these taxes, which may help them afford assisted living in Ogden.
  • The Ogden region has subpar air quality, which may be a consideration for seniors with cardiovascular or respiratory conditions. The American Lung Association gives the region a C for short-term particle pollution and the lowest grade for ozone pollution. Assisted living facilities generally have updated air filtration systems and host indoor activities throughout the year to help those sensitive to pollution to stay active.
