- The air quality in Angels Camp and throughout Calaveras County is poor and has received a failing grade from the American Lung Association. Seniors with respiratory-related medical concerns may find that their condition worsens while living in this area and might consider moving to an area with cleaner air.
- Local seniors will enjoy Angels Camp's and Calaveras County's rich history and culture. Some RCFs in the area may offer residents supervised day trips to visit local points of interest such as Angels Camp Museum or Mercer Caverns.
- The cost of living in Angels Camp is 21.6 percent above the national average, meaning that seniors have to pay more out of pocket for expenses like health care and prescription medications.
