What to Consider About Assisted Living in Long Beach
Long Beach was named after its long, wide beaches, which remain a popular attraction today. It has a relatively small senior population, with less than 11 percent of the city's 470,000 residents aged 65 and over. Seniors wishing to retire to the area can find accommodation at one of the 122 assisted living facilities in Long Beach and nearby communities. These are referred to as Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly and are licensed by the California Department of Social Services, Senior Care Licensing Program.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Long Beach
- Long Beach 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.
- The Los Angeles-Long Beach metropolitan area has the highest level of ozone pollution in the country, according to the State of the Air 2018 report. The city also ranks among the top 10 most polluted cities in two particle pollution categories, which may impact the health of seniors, especially those with respiratory conditions.
- Income from pensions and retirement accounts are subject to state income tax in California, although Social Security benefits are exempt. California also has the highest state sales tax in the country, which may impact the budget of Long Beach seniors on a fixed income.
- The Long Beach area is home to world-class medical facilities, including St. Mary Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- Long Beach has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Los Angeles Aging Advocacy Coalition, an organization that provides education and advocacy activities for older persons as well as more than six senior centers.
- Seniors in Long Beach can access public transport through Long Beach Transit. Riders aged 62 and older are eligible for discounted fares. Some seniors may also be able to access Dial-A-Ride, a curb-to-curb, shared-ride service for people unable to use the regular bus.
