What to Consider About Assisted Living in San Jose
San Jose was the first civilized settlement in what was then known as Nueva California in 1770. Seniors living in San Jose can explore its rich history and choose from 71 assisted living facilities. In California, Assisted Living Facilities are called Residential Care Facilities and refer to voluntary communal housing which provides some level of supervision and care with at least 75 percent of residents over age 60. The licensing and regulation of RCFs are governed state-wide by The Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in San Jose
- Seniors may enjoy the mild climate in San Jose. The summers are pleasant with an average high of 83 degrees in July. The winters are warm with an average of 41 degrees in January and only two inches of snowfall. Seniors can be active all year round in this climate.
-
Crime in San Jose is lower than the national average which may make seniors feel quite safe. Violent crime is at 28.5 out of 100 (1 being the safest) which is lower than the U.S. average of 31.1. Property crime is also lower, sitting at 35.4 compared to the U.S. average of 38.1.
