What to Consider About Assisted Living in Valley

Valley is an Alabama Community of Excellence, dedicated to creating a more vibrant future for all residents. About 14% of the city’s nearly 9,500 residents are aged 65 and older. Seniors in Valley seeking support with the activities of daily living have two assisted living facilities ready to help. 

Assisted living communities in Valley, as in the entire state, are licensed and regulated by the Alabama Department of Public Health, Bureau of Health Provider Standards.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Valley

 

  • The cost of living in Valley is 20% lower than the national average and about 8% lower than the state average. This is primarily due to the low cost of housing and transportation. Seniors pay about the same as the U.S. average for groceries, utilities and healthcare.
  • Seniors who don’t care for wet weather should consider that Valley gets 53 inches of annual rainfall on average. That is significantly more than the U.S. average of 38 inches. Although winters are mild with a January average low of 31 degrees, summers are long, hot and humid with a July average high of 90 degrees.
  • Valley has an extremely high property crime rate of 82.2 out of 100, with 100 being the highest score possible. The U.S. average is 35.4. Violent crime here also exceeds the national average, with Valley rating a 39.5 compared to the national average of 22.7. This may give seniors and their loved ones cause for concern if they are considering relocation.
  • The Valley area is home to world-class medical facilities, including East Alabama Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
  • Retirees living in Valley benefit from Alabama's tax-friendly policies. Social Security benefits are not taxed in the state, and Alabama’s low income tax rate ranges from 2% to 5%.
  • The Valley area has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Valley Senior Center funded by the city, which offers meals, trips, parties and exercise programs. The Center has three buses that deliver housebound meals and transport residents to and from the Senior Center.
