What to Consider About Assisted Living in Oroville

The California Department of Social Services, Senior Care Licensing Program, licenses assisted living facilities in Oroville and the rest of the state. This department enforces rules related to staffing, care planning and services and amenities, and it maintains a database of licensed long-term care facilities throughout the state.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Oroville

 

  • The American Lung Association gives Butte County, where Oroville is located, a passing score for annual particle pollution levels. However, the region gets the lowest marks possible for ozone and 24-hour particle pollution. Many assisted living facilities in the region have air purification systems, helping residents stay comfortable.
  • Seniors in Oroville pay state income taxes on almost all forms of retirement income, including pension incomes, disbursements from investments and withdrawals from retirement savings accounts. However, Social Security benefits are tax-free at the state level, providing significant savings for those who rely mainly on this type of income.
  • Compared to California as a whole, Oroville’s cost of living is very low, which may be beneficial for those with limited incomes. The city rates 101.3 on an index based on a national norm of 100, indicating that living costs are near national marks. By comparison, California rates 149.9.
  • Crime is somewhat prevalent in Oroville. Using a 100-point index on which the nation rates 22.7 for violent crime and 35.4 for property crime, the city’s respective scores are 30.8 and 95. This may make residential care a safe alternative to living alone for vulnerable seniors.
  • Oroville’s weather is generally mild throughout the year, which may appeal to older adults who enjoy relaxing outdoors. Summers are very warm with daytime temperatures in the 90s, but other seasons are pleasant with highs ranging from 55-81 degrees.
