What to Consider About Assisted Living in Glenview
Located just northwest of Chicago, Glenview is a city that's ideal for seniors who enjoy a quiet daily life but don't want to give up all the amenities that come with living in a big city. While the city is moderate in size, it has a fairly large senior community. Seniors age 55 and older make up 35.2 percent of Glenview's 47,475 population. Twenty-five assisted living facilities in the area accommodate the aging population. One is located within the Glenview city limits, and 24 are located in nearby communities. As with facilities in the rest of Illinois, Glenview assisted living facilities are regulated by the Illinois Department of Public Health.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Glenview
- The PACE bus system serves the Glenview area. The Regional Transit Authority, Chicago Transit Authority and Metra all connect with the PACE bus routes, making it easy for seniors to travel around town or go to and from Chicago. The Illinois Department on Aging's Benefit Access program allows qualified seniors age 65 and older to use the area's public transportation for free. PACE also offers a paratransit service for seniors who require door-to-door transportation.
- Many retirees consider Illinois a tax-friendly state. Withdrawals from retirement accounts, including 401Ks, pension payments and Social Security income isn't taxed at all.

Fortunately, groceries and health-care costs are only slightly above the national average, at 8 percent and 1 percent, respectively. This may make it a bit easier to find affordable prices on necessities.

The city has an overall crime rate that's 45 percent lower than the Illinois average and 52 percent lower than the national average. When it comes to violent crimes, Glenview's crime rate is 80 percent lower than the state average and 78 percent lower than the national average.
