What to Consider About Assisted Living in Kennesaw
Kennesaw is a city in the northwestern suburbs of Atlanta that's loved by seniors due to its natural beauty and appreciation of American history. While only 8.1% of the 34,000 residents in this city are aged 65 and over, there are 11 assisted living facilities located within the city limits as well as an additional 31 facilities located in the surrounding areas.
In Kennesaw and the rest of the state of Georgia, these facilities are officially recognized as Assisted Living Communities and Personal Care Homes. Locations are licensed and regulated by the state's Department of Community Health.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Kennesaw
- As part of Cobb County, Kennesaw gets a grade of C for ozone pollution from the American Lung Association. Seniors in the community should check the daily ozone levels before going outside, as exposure can cause various health problems. The area gets a passing grade for annual particle pollution.
- Seniors in Kennesaw who are sensitive to heat should be aware that average high temperatures in July average 88 degrees. The city is also quite wet with an average of 53 inches of precipitation per year which is 15 inches higher than the national average.
- Seniors looking for assisted living in Kennesaw may find that prices in the city are higher than in other locations in Georgia. The city's overall cost of living is 13.6% higher than the Georgia average of 100.3. It's also a bit more expensive than the average for the Atlanta metro area.
- Kennesaw has many arts and culture opportunities for seniors who appreciate the city's role in American history. The Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park memorializes an 1864 Civil War battle with a visitor's center that includes films and artifacts. The Southern Museum of Civil War and Locomotive History has a wide range of permanent and traveling exhibits.
- Due to Georgia's friendly tax policies for seniors, people aged 65 and over may find it easier to afford assisted living in Kennesaw. All income from social security is exempt from state income tax. For those with other retirement income, there is a deduction of $65,000 on pensions, IRAs, 401(k)s and other accounts and benefits.
