What to Consider About Assisted Living in Long Grove

Despite being located just 35 miles from Chicago, the historic village of Long Grove, Illinois, cultivates a relaxed atmosphere and old-fashioned charm that has plenty of appeal for seniors who enjoy a quieter pace. A little over 13 percent of the approximately 8,000 residents are age 65 or older, leading to a thriving senior community.

Residents can choose from two assisted living facilities in Long Grove itself, and an additional 29 facilities are located in nearby communities. They are regulated on a state level by the Illinois Department of Public Health. Assisted living facilities are required to provide residents with certain services, including serving three meals a day, providing housecleaning and laundry services, and maintaining 24-hour security and emergency communication response systems for resident safety.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Long Grove

  • Long Grove is often considered to be an expensive place to live. This is mostly due to extremely high real estate costs, which may not impact seniors in assisted living. Residents generally spend slightly less than the national average on groceries, health, and utilities.
  • Winters in Long Grove tend to be cold and harsh. It typically receives around 40 inches of snow a year, which may make it difficult for active seniors to get around. Summers tend to be fairly mild, with typical July highs in the low 80s.
  • Public transportation in Long Grove is limited, which can make it difficult for seniors who don't drive. There is no public bus system, and the nearest Metra train stations are located in the neighboring towns of Buffalo Grove and Arlington Heights. Taxis and ridesharing options are available.
  • Long Grove's thriving Historic Downtown district offers plenty of art and culture despite the town's small size. The town hosts multiple festivals each year, including Vintage Days, Strawberry Fest and Apple Fest.
  • The Long Grove area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Northwest Community Healthcare Hospital in neighboring Arlington Heights, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
  • Lake County, in which Long Grove is located, was given an "F" rating for air quality by the American Lung Association due to high ozone levels. Seniors with respiratory illnesses may be at risk.
