What to Consider About Assisted Living in Oakland Park
Oakland Park, Florida, is a city located in southeast Florida, around five miles from Fort Lauderdale with a population of approximately 45,000. Because senior citizens comprise 11.1 percent of that population, Orchard Park offers 58 assisted living facilities (ALFs) to select from. In Oakland Park as well as the rest of the state of Florida, ALFs are defined by the Department of Elder Affairs as establishments that offer residential services in a home-like environment. These ALFs are divided into four separate categories, including mental health care and nursing services, and are licensed by the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Oakland Park
- One reason seniors are drawn to assisted living in Florida is because of the state's income tax cuts. In Oakland Park and across the state, Social Security and pension income are exempt from taxation, which allows seniors to spend more of their budget on supplementary expenses.
- The Oakland Park area has no facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital, Holy Cross Hospital, located in Fort Lauderdale.
- Oakland Park has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Active Adults program, a program that offers free exercise classes, arts and crafts events as well as monthly luncheons and excursions.
- The Broward County Transit public transportation provides mass transit throughout Oakland Park. Seniors qualify for half-priced fares. The nearest airport to Oakland Park is Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport for seniors interested in flying.
- The overall cost of living in Oakland Park is approximately 4 percent higher than the average cost of living for the state of Florida. Transportation and food costs are the biggest factors in the price increase for this area. Seniors seeking to live in Florida for assisted living might consider elsewhere in the state for more affordability.
- On a scale of 1 to 100, with 100 being extremely high crime rates, the violent crime rate in Oakland Park receives a score of 60, nearly double the national average violent crime rate score of 31. Such high violent crime rates in Oakland Park could suggest that seniors would be at higher risk of becoming a victim of a crime in this area.
