What to Consider About Assisted Living in Moraga
Moraga is a residential city in the scenic hills above Oakland, about halfway from the bay coast to the San Joaquin Valley. Just over 17,600 people live in Moraga, 20 percent of whom are seniors age 65 and over, and the town is linked with nearly a dozen other hill communities where 175 assisted living facilities provide safe, comfortable independent living for seniors. Like all residential care communities in the state, Moraga's assisted living facilities are licensed through the California Department of Social Services' Community Care Licensing Division.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Moraga
- The climate in Moraga is both warmer and more variable than lower-altitude Bay communities like Oakland. Summers get hot here, with daily average highs of 85 degrees. Winters in Moraga are cooler than on the flats, but still mild with average lows of 40 degrees. A little over 25 inches of rain fall on Moraga in a typical year, which causes winter and spring greening of the hills and can raise mold and pollen allergens that trouble some seniors with asthma.
- The cost of living in Moraga is very high by national standards. All costs combined here average 300 percent the national rate, and the median home cost in Moraga is over $1.3 million. Healthcare is less disproportionately expensive, but typical costs are still 2 percent above average rates paid nationwide.
- Crime rates in Moraga are very low. For all crime categories combined, Moraga has 80 percent less crime than equivalent-sized communities elsewhere in America. Violent crime is even less common than property offenses such as theft and vandalism.
- Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) provides bus service throughout the East Bay Area. Scheduled bus routes and dial-a-ride service can bring Moraga seniors to transit hubs in Oakland and Berkeley at a discount, from which riders can reach almost any community in the region. All BART buses and trains are ADA-compliant, and drivers can assist mobility-impaired riders with wheelchair access.
- The Moraga area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as Alta Bates Summit Medical Center and Kaiser Permanente Walnut Creek Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- Moraga has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Diablo Valley Foundation for the Aging, an organization that performs needs assessments and regular check-ins with seniors in Moraga, as well as four senior centers.
