What to Consider About Assisted Living in Azusa

California's Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division, Senior Care Program assesses and licenses assisted living facilities throughout Azusa and the state. It ensures facilities follow health and safety regulations to maintain quality of life for residents. It also provides a searchable database, helping seniors find local care options aligning with their needs. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Azusa

 

 

  • Azusa's cost of living ranks 33.8% higher than the national median, offering higher average prices for housing, transportation and groceries. However, it earns an AARP livability index score of 51, which lands higher than the average U.S. city score of 48. Additionally, the city offers third-party assistance programs to help residents financially. Moving to assisted living may also help with expenses, since most communities offer fixed monthly rates for necessities, including housing and utilities. 

 

  • Azusa experiences short, hot summers and cool, partly cloudy winters. Average year-round temperatures fall between 45 and 92 degrees Fahrenheit and rarely drop below 38 degrees or rise above 100 degrees. Assisted living communities help residents stay active year-round with a mix of indoor and outdoor activities or amenities. 

 

  • Azusa earns an overall annual crime rate of 23.47 per 1,000 residents, placing it in the top 83% of safest U.S. neighborhoods. However, it experiences lower violent crime rates than state and federal figures, ranking at 2.89 per 1,000 residents compared to 4.99 and 4, respectively. Assisted living communities also enhance resident safety through security features, including video surveillance and emergency call systems. 

 

  • California doesn't tax Social Security benefits but fully taxes retirement account withdrawals and public or private pension income at some of the highest rates in the country. However, the state's Senior Citizen Property Tax Relief program offers assistance for eligible seniors, which can help cover long-term care costs.
