What to Consider About Assisted Living in Taylor

The 17,000 people of Taylor, TX, share their town with 28 assisted living communities full of active seniors who live with as much independence as their health permits. This is partly the result of close monitoring by the Texas Department of Health and Human Services, which inspects long-term care facilities in the state for quality of care and health and safety issues. Though specific amenities offered vary by the property, all of Taylor's assisted living communities provide room and board for their residents, as well as emergency response as needed and regular help for residents with activities of daily living (ADLs) that have become difficult for them to do alone. These typically include dressing, grooming and taking some medications. Staff at some properties also book offsite travel for residents, and they may communicate with seniors' doctors to make sure all are following the resident's care plan.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Taylor

  • Taylor's weather gets down to an average of 36 degrees Fahrenheit in the winter, which makes for mild days and nights with a space heater in the bedroom of an assisted living community. Summer highs average 96 degrees, which heat-sensitive seniors need to be careful about. Taylor gets 35 inches of rain a year.

  • Taylor's cost of living is slightly lower than the national average. Seniors who buy groceries here pay up to 15 percent less than the U.S. median price. Health care savings are less dramatic, with local costs only around 2 percent cheaper.

  • Texas has no income tax, which helps seniors on fixed incomes keep more of their retirement funds, but a sales tax of between 6.25 and 8.25 percent increases the cost of goods somewhat. Seniors who drive also have to pay a 20 cent gas tax.

  • Crime is much less common in Taylor than in similar-sized cities across the country. Property crime rates here are under two-thirds the national average, while violent crime -- including crimes against seniors -- are lower still.

  • Capital Area Rural Transportation System operates the Country Bus network, which provides on-demand bus service to area residents, including seniors with mobility issues. Rides are provided curb-to-curb but must be booked at least a day in advance. Country Bus also offers limited fixed-schedule routes in some areas of the Capital region.

  • The Taylor area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Baylor Scott & White Medical Center - Taylor, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
