What to Consider About Assisted Living in Pleasant Hill
Pleasant Hill is home to nine parks, which feature scenic walking and biking trails, picnic areas and fishing opportunities. The city has just under 35,000 residents, about 15 percent of whom are seniors. Pleasant Hill seniors have eight assisted living options from which to choose, and there are 88 more in the surrounding area.
In this city, as in the rest of the state, assisted living facilities may also be referred to as residential care facilities for the elderly. These facilities are licensed and monitored by the Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Pleasant Hill
- California residents pay some of the highest state income taxes in the nation, and most forms of retirement income are fully taxable. This may be a concern for Pleasant Hill seniors with tight assisted living budgets.
- According to data gathered by the American Lung Association, ozone pollution levels in Contra Costa County, where Pleasant Hill is located, are very high. The county was given an F for this type of pollution, which may also be known as smog. Particle pollution levels are relatively low, however, with the county receiving a B for short-term particle pollution and a passing score for annual particle pollution. This may be a consideration for some seniors researching assisted living in Pleasant Hill.
- Pleasant Hill has a fairly high combined property and violent crime rate, which may be a consideration for active seniors who are relocating to the area. On a 100-point crime index, the city is rated a four, indicating that it is safer than just four percent of cities of all sizes in the United States.
- Over the course of a year, temperatures in Pleasant Hill range between 40 degrees and 86 degrees, and the city experiences virtually no humidity. The city's comfortable climate may appeal to seniors who enjoy being outdoors throughout the year.
- The Pleasant Hill area is home to world-class medical facilities, including John Muir Health, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- Pleasant Hill's overall cost of living is more than double the nationwide average, which may be a consideration for seniors with tight budgets. While the most significant factor affecting the city's high cost of living is housing, seniors may also expect to pay 10 percent more for groceries and 37 percent more on transportation expenses here than they would elsewhere in the country.
