What to Consider About Assisted Living in Redlands

In Redlands, assisted living facilities are licensed and monitored by the California Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division. This department enforces compliance with regulations and initial licensing process and scheduled and unannounced inspections throughout the year. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Redlands

  • Redlands is among the most affordable cities in California and may be a good option for those seeking budget-friendly senior care. While its overall cost of living is about 25% higher than the national average, it’s 25% lower than the statewide median. Expenses such as transportation, entertainment, restaurant meals and groceries are cheaper here than in most California cities.   
  • California’s income tax rate is among the highest in the nation, and seniors pay taxes on almost all retirement income. The state also has a capital gains tax, which may impact those who have investments they intend to sell during retirement. However, Social Security benefits are tax-exempt, so the state’s income taxes may not be burdensome for those who rely primarily on this income.   
  • Mild year-round temperatures, minimal rain and virtually no snow, make Redlands a comfortable option for retirees. Over the course of a year, high temperatures range from 67 to 98 degrees, placing the city among the warmer cities in California, and humidity levels tend to be low. 
  • On a 100-point air quality index, Redlands scores slightly better than the nation as a whole, with a rate of 60 compared to the U.S. average of 58. Cleaner air is associated with better health, making the city a good option for older adults.  
  • While Redlands’ property crime rate is high compared to the national average, violent crime is relatively uncommon. The latest published data shows that violent crime occurs in this city at a rate of 357 incidents per 100,000 people, which is lower than the state rate of 441 and the national frequency of 379. Both property and violent crime rates in Redlands are consistent with rates in other similarly sized cities in California.  
  • Redlands operates the Senior Transportation Program for area residents aged 55 and over who are physically or mentally unable to use other transportation options. This program provides reservation-based curb-to-curb service on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Seniors must reserve their ride at least 48 hours in advance by calling (909) 435-5419.
