Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Shiloh
- The Shiloh area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Memorial Hospital East, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- Public transport in Shiloh is offered by St. Louis' Metro service. Riders aged 65 and over can apply for a Seniors Ride Free MetroLink pass through St. Clair County Transit District.
- The cost of living in Shiloh is 103 on the Sperling index, three points higher than the national average of 100. Although this makes Shiloh an expensive place to live, seniors can still save money on groceries, which are 92.9 on the index, over seven points lower than the national average.
- Illinois has some of the highest sales taxes in the country, which can have a big impact on seniors living on a fixed budget. This is eased by the state's income tax policy, which exempts nearly all retirement income including Social Security, money from retirement accounts and pension income.
- Shiloh has around 201 sunny days each year, which is close to the national average of 205. This allows plenty of time for seniors to enjoy the sunshine. In January the average low is 23 degrees and the village gets just 12 inches of snow each year, 14 inches less than the U.S. average. In summer, the average high is 88 degrees.
- The crime rate in Shiloh is higher than 75 percent of Illinois' other communities, which may be a concern for safety-conscious seniors. Despite this, both violent and property crime occur at a rate lower than the state average.
