What to Consider About Assisted Living in Oakley

Oakley is a sprawling community in California's East Bay region, located between the Sacramento River Delta and the agricultural land of the Central Valley. Home to almost 42,000 people, just 9 percent of Oakley's residents are seniors aged 65 and over. At least 37 assisted living facilities operate in and around Oakley to provide them with safe and comfortable independent living. Like all residential care communities in the state, Oakley's assisted living facilities are licensed and inspected by the California Department of Social Services' Community Care Licensing Division.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Oakley

  • The weather in Oakley is generally warm, but it can get unpredictable in winter. Summer highs in Oakley average a little over 91 degrees, while winter lows average around 39 in December. The eastern part of Contra Costa County gets 13 inches of rain in a typical year, though this part of California is prone to droughts that can change the rainfall total by up to half for one or two years at a time. Winter blooms in the hills around town can put a lot of pollen in the air and aggravate some seniors' asthma.
  • The cost of living in Oakley is 59 percent higher than the national average, but that's a little less than the 69 percent-higher average cost of living for California. Much of the premium Oakley residents pay is in the expensive local real estate market, while some other costs are well below the state average. Healthcare, for example, costs only 2 percent more in Oakley than it does nationwide.
  • Crime rates in Oakley are very low across all categories. All crimes combined run to around 40 percent of the national average crime rate, while violent crimes are less common still. Much of the property crime reported in Oakley is theft, vandalism or other relatively minor offenses.
  • Seniors in Oakley can get around the entire Bay Area on the bus and rail routes of Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART). BART connects almost all Bay Area communities with scheduled service, as well as dial-a-ride and assisted ride services with same-day scheduling. Seniors and mobility-impaired riders qualify for discount fares on BART.
  • The Oakley area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as Sutter Delta Medical Center and John Muir Health, Concord Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
  • Oakley has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Contra Costa County Area Agency on Aging, an organization that provides adult day health care and transportation services for Oakley's seniors, as well as three senior centers.
