What to Consider About Assisted Living in Kenwood
Kenwood is a small eastern suburb of Santa Rosa, near the central hills of California's Sonoma Wine Country. Sonoma County is home to 174,000 people, 15.6 percent of whom are seniors age 65 and over. At least 61 assisted living facilities dot the manicured farm country in and around Kenwood, where seniors can live as independently as their health allows in safe and comfortable surroundings.
Kenwood's assisted living facilities, like those in the rest of the state, are licensed through the California Department of Social Services' Community Care Licensing Division.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Kenwood
- Kenwood rests against the reverse slope of California's steep coastal range, which gives it sometimes variable weather. Summer highs in Kenwood average 82 degrees, while winter lows average 39 degrees. Slightly less than 31 inches of rain reach the Kenwood area, which raises pollen in the fields around town and can irritate some seniors' asthma.
- The cost of living in Kenwood is two-and-a-half times higher than the national average. The median home cost in Kenwood is well over $1 million, though in some other areas local costs can be significantly lower than average. Healthcare, for example, costs 8 percent less in Kenwood than the national average.
- Kenwood's crime rate is very low, even by the already-low standards of Sonoma County. Even in neighboring Santa Rosa, crime rates are roughly 20 percent lower across the board than national figures. Violent crime rates are lower still, with most of the reported crimes in the area classed as theft or other property violations.
- For travel to and from San Francisco, Golden Gate Transit operates four bus routes daily with ADA-compliant buses. Rail transportation in the Kenwood area is provided by Sonoma-Marin Area Rail Transit (SMART), which runs trains out as far as the Marin Headlands, near San Rafael. Seniors and adults with disabilities qualify for discounted fares on both services.
- The Kenwood area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital and Adventist Health St. Helena, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- Sonoma County is a member of the AARP Network of Age-Friendly Communities, meaning that its elected leadership “has made the commitment to actively work toward making their town, city or county a great place for people of all ages,” according to AARP.
