What to Consider About Assisted Living in Orange Park
Orange Park, Fla., is located in Clay County near Jacksonville. It has a large senior population of over 17 percent in a relatively small town of under 8,800 people. Assisted Living Facilities (ALFs) in Orange Park are regulated by the Florida Department of Elder Affairs. To live in an ALF a person must meet the residency criteria set out by Florida regulations and the facility.

There are eight ALFs in Orange Park and another 50 in the surrounding area.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Orange Park
- Orange Park is a suburb of Jacksonville and has easy access to the cultural riches of this large city. Some assisted living facilities may arrange supervised trips to major attractions such as The Ritz Theater and Museum or a performance by The Florida Ballet.
- The cost of living in Orange Park is around 5 percent lower than the national average, making it an attractive option for seniors on a fixed income. However, Jacksonville as a whole is expensive, so seniors planning to spend time in the city should take this into account.
- Orange Park has a subtropical climate with long, warm summers and mild winters. It's vulnerable to hurricanes, but most lose their strength before reaching the north where Orange Park is situated.
- Florida has no income tax, which means social security checks, pensions and income from an IRA or 401(k) are untaxed. This leaves more money in the budget to spend on an assisted living facility.
-
Clay Transit offers community transportation throughout Clay County. Seniors receive a 50 percent discount on fares. Clay Transit also offers a door-to-door service to medical appointments and other activities. Seniors may be eligible for this service, though there is an additional fee.
- Property crime in Orange Park is on par with the rest of the country, but violent crime is higher than the Florida average. Orange Park is safer than 24 percent of U.S. cities.
