What to Consider About Assisted Living in Sanford

Known as the "Historic Waterfront Gateway City," Sanford, Florida, is on the southern shore of Lake Monroe and features a downtown river walk where seniors can peruse antique and collectible shops before heading home to one of seven assisted living facilities in Sanford or one of 50 in nearby Lake Mary, Deland and other Orlando-area towns. Florida’s Department of Elder Affairs oversees the state’s many assisted living facilities, or ALFs. The state defines an ALF as any licensed residential care facility that provides food, personal care and other supportive services. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Sanford

  • Thanks to its location in central Florida, Sanford boasts warm temperatures throughout the year. Winter months feature comfortable highs in the 70s. However, temperatures and humidity levels soar in the summer months, when average high temps exceed 90 degrees from June through September.

  • Living in Sanford is slightly cheaper than the Florida and U.S. average with housing costs about 15 percent lower than the state average and 17 percent below the national average.

  • Crime is a concern in Sanford. The city is safer than just 4 percent of U.S. cities. Violent crime rates are twice as high as the state average. Likewise, property crime rates in Sanford are higher than other Florida cities.

  • Orlando’s Lynx public transportation system reaches Sanford as well. This system includes fixed-route buses as well as Access Lynx, a valuable asset for seniors. Access Lynx is a shared door-to-door service available to individuals with a disability or other limitations.

  • The Sanford area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Central Florida Regional Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.

  • Sanford has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Golden Age Games, the nation’s oldest senior games competition as well as one senior center.
