What to Consider About Assisted Living in Northglenn

All assisted living facilities in Northglenn and the rest of Colorado apply for initial and annual licensing through the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment. This department sets rules for the services assisted living facilities must provide and staffing requirements. It also publishes resources for consumers, including a form for filing complaints regarding a facility’s care or housing standards.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Northglenn

  • Northglenn’s cost of living runs about 21% higher than the national norm, but it closely aligns with Colorado’s average, making it a practical option for many seniors seeking assisted living services near Denver. Health care services are affordable here compared to other U.S. cities, benefiting those managing age-related health conditions. Additionally, housing and groceries cost a little less than in a typical Colorado community, which may contribute to more economical assisted living costs.
  • Colorado taxes all forms of retirement income, including Social Security benefits and government pensions. However, it has a deduction of up to $24,000 for taxpayers aged 65 and over, letting them significantly reduce their tax burden to the state while increasing the amount they have to put toward assisted living expenses in Northglenn. 
  • Seniors in Northglenn have access to two major hospitals within about 3 miles of the city, including North Suburban Medical Center in Thornton and St. Anthony North Hospital in Westminster. Together, these hospitals provide 24-hour emergency care, trauma services and specialties in surgery, cardiology and diabetes management. To help residents schedule and keep medical appointments, many local assisted living facilities provide medical concierge and transportation services.
  • Northglenn’s crime rate exceeds norms in 97% of U.S. cities and 94% of cities in Colorado. Its combined rate of violent and nonviolent crimes is considerably higher than rates in other similarly sized communities nationwide. Fortunately, many assisted living facilities have security gates, alarm systems and high-security locks for residents’ safety and peace of mind.
  • Compared to the rest of Colorado, Northglenn has warm weather throughout the year, with daytime temperatures ranging from 46 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit. The city gets 16 inches of annual rainfall and 49 inches of snow, with residents seeing significant snowfall nine months out of the year. To support residents’ comfort, many assisted living facilities have unit-controlled thermostats and host indoor activities year-round.
