    What to Consider About Assisted Living in Crestwood

    Crestwood, IL, is a suburb of Chicago that is located in Cook County. The area is home to 61 assisted living facilities. The Division of Assisted Living, a branch of the Illinois Department of Health licenses assisted living facilities in the state. These facilities are designed to help seniors with activities of daily living. However, some are equipped to offer specialized care for residents who have conditions like dementia or a disability.

    Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Crestwood

    • Seniors who live on a fixed income and are concerned about Crestwood’s cost of living should note that the community is only just slightly over the national average cost of living index. Crestwood’s cost of living index is 101; the national average is 100.

    • The Biela Senior Center features programs, activities and events for Crestwood seniors.

    • The suburb of Crestwood is home to world-class medical facilities, including Ingalls Care Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.

    • Seniors who rely on public transportation in Crestwood are served by PACE Bus, which also offers paratransit programs. Seniors can ride the bus at a reduced fare. While there are no Metra rail stations in town, there are some within a 15-minutes’ drive in neighboring communities like Midlothian and Palos Heights.

    • Safety is important to seniors, so they should note that Crestwood’s annual crime rate per 100,000 people is above the national average. Crestwood’s annual crime rate is 2,741 per 100,000 people; the national average is 2,837 crimes per 100,000 people.

    • With an average July high of 83 degrees, Crestwood summers are hot and humid. When the heat index is high, seniors with respiratory conditions may be advised to stay indoors.
