What to Consider About Assisted Living in American Canyon

In American Canyon and the rest of California, the California Department of Social Services, Senior Care Licensing Program, officially recognizes assisted living facilities as residential care facilities for older adults. All facilities in the state must obtain initial and annual licensing and comply with the program’s operating rules.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in American Canyon

  • In American Canyon, overall living expenses exceed the state average by about 8% and the national norm by roughly 61%, marking this city as a relatively expensive place to obtain long-term care. However, the high cost of living is mainly connected to above-average housing prices, which seniors may avoid by opting for assisted living. Additionally, many facilities provide financial advice to help residents identify ways to cover care.
  • American Canyon’s residents have a 1 in 44 chance of becoming victims of either violent or property-related offenses, which exceeds the norm in 67% of California communities and 82% of cities nationwide. Annually, the city reports about 23 crimes per 1,000 people, including 19 nonviolent offenses and roughly four violent infractions. This report may make assisted living facilities, which often have alarm systems and escorted transportation, a preferred alternative to living alone for vulnerable seniors.
  • Seniors in American Canyon pay taxes on almost all their retirement income at relatively high tax rates of up to 13.3%. Fortunately, the state has the senior income tax exemption, letting older adults file for double the standard personal exemption, and it has a full exemption for Social Security benefits.
  • American Canyon’s proximity to Vallejo gives local assisted living residents access to two hospitals, including Sutter Solano Medical Center and Kaiser Permanente Vallejo Medical Center. These hospitals provide emergency, urgent and telemedicine services, along with inpatient and outpatient care, to supplement the wellness services seniors receive through residential care.
  • With a Mediterranean climate that brings mild winters, warm summers and average temperatures ranging from 39 to 83 degrees Fahrenheit throughout the year, American Canyon supports outdoor living for seniors. The city gets about 24 inches of rainfall annually compared to 38 inches nationally, and residents see 265 sunny days, which is about 60 more days than the national norm. To promote an active lifestyle, many assisted living facilities organize outdoor activities throughout the year, including cookouts, walking clubs and picnics.
