What to Consider About Assisted Living in Avon
Avon, Indiana, is a professionally managed community that was incorporated in 1995 and was the first Tree City USA Community in Hendricks County. Seniors can enjoy the town’s natural environment from one of the city’s three assisted living facilities, and those who are willing to look out a little farther will find an additional nine communities nearby.
In Avon, as in the rest of Indiana, assisted living facilities are officially known as Residential Care Facilities. These facilities are monitored and licensed by the Family and Social Services Agency Division of Aging and house at least five residents. Each community is required to provide at least one health-related service and two or more scheduled supportive services.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Avon
- Avon has hot, humid summers with highs in the mid-80s, which may be a consideration with seniors with health conditions that are worsened in a humid climate. Winters are chilly, with lows in the 20s.
- Air quality can have a significant impact on seniors' health, particularly for those with respiratory illnesses. Hendricks County was given an "A" for ozone pollution by the American Lung Association, which may be an attractive benefit for individuals with asthma or cardiovascular disease.
- The overall cost of living in Avon is slightly higher than the U.S. average. However, seniors can expect to pay about 9 percent less on grocery expenses and 13 percent less on healthcare here than they would in other U.S. cities. Transportation costs are roughly 13 percent higher than average, largely due to the town's lack of a public transportation system.
- Avon seniors do not pay taxes on their Social Security benefits, although any income received from retirement accounts or pension plans is taxed.
- The overall crime rates in Avon are 45 percent higher than the Indiana mean and 53 percent higher than the national average. Compared to the state average, Avon's rate of violent crime is 6 percent higher, and the rate of property crime is 52 percent higher. Assisted living communities are generally outfitted with security equipment and personnel, although seniors may want to take extra safety precautions when they're out and about.
- The Avon area is home to world-class medical facilities, including IU Health West Hospital and St. Vincent Neighborhood Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
