What to Consider About Assisted Living in Mesa
The most populous suburb in America, Mesa has about 484,000 residents, approximately 16 percent of whom are 65 and over. Residents in this age group who need assisted living may choose between 75 facilities in Mesa. As is the case in all of Arizona, assisted living facilities in Mesa must be licensed by the state's Division of Public Health Licensing Services.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Mesa
- Although the overall cost of living in Mesa is 14 percent higher than the national average, it's primarily housing and transportation costs that contribute to the city's elevated living costs. The cost of healthcare, groceries and other miscellaneous costs that tend to affect seniors in assisted living facilities are lower than the national average.
- Although the winters in Mesa are mild, summers are long and extremely hot. The average July high temperature is 105 degrees, and the city receives more than 300 sunny days each year. Seniors who don't mind the heat and prefer to stay dry will feel at home in Mesa, where the yearly rainfall is less than one-third the national average.
- Arizona does not tax Social Security checks, which allows seniors to keep more money in their pockets, perhaps to spend on quality health care.
- Mesa's crime is similar to that of a typical U.S. city. Its violent crime rate of 19.3 is slightly below the national average of 22.7, while its property crime rate of 37.6 is a little higher than the national rate of 35.4. Overall, seniors and their families can feel safe about choosing Mesa as their destination for assisted living.
- The Mesa area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Banner Desert Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- Mesa's air quality is 53 on a scale of 1 to 100 (1 is worst). This is slightly lower than the national average of 58, which is something seniors may want to consider if they have asthma or other breathing difficulties.
