What to Consider About Assisted Living in Monrovia
Monrovia is home to numerous statues of black bears, erected to honor Samson the Hot Tub Bear. In the 1990s Samson regularly came into town for food and jumped in area hot tubs to relax after his meal. Seniors retiring to the area may find the city as relaxing and welcoming as Samson did. Around 13 percent of the city's 37,000 residents are aged 65 and over, and there are 58 assisted living facilities in the area catering to this population. They're licensed and monitored by the California Department of Social Services, Senior Care Licensing Program.

- The air quality in Los Angeles County, including Monrovia, is poor. The county received failing grades for both 24-hour particle pollution and ozone pollution in the State of the Air 2018 report. This high level of pollution may lead to health problems for seniors, especially those with respiratory conditions.
- The Monrovia area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Methodist Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- There are a number of public transport options for seniors in Monrovia. GoMonrovia is a low-cost transport option offered in conjunction with Lyft. Foothill Transit offers buses in the area and seniors received discounted fares. In addition, Monrovia Transit offers a Dial-A-Ride service to people covered by the Americans with Disabilities Act, which some seniors may be eligible for.
- Los Angeles County, including Monrovia, 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.
- There is an average of 285 days of sunshine in Monrovia each year, 80 more than the national average, which is good news for seniors who prefer a sunny retirement. In July the average high is around 84 degrees and the January low is around 37, allowing seniors to enjoy comfortable weather throughout the year.
- Most retirement income, including money from pensions and retirement accounts, are subject to state income tax in California, although Social Security Income is exempt.
