Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Jeffersonville

  • Jeffersonville sees an average of 195 sunny days per year. Summers are warm, and there is some snow in the winter. Overall, the weather in Jeffersonville is more comfortable than in most other parts of Indiana.
  • The cost of living in Jeffersonville is lower than the national average. This means the city is a good choice for cost-conscious seniors who want to make their retirement income go as far as possible.
  • Social Security retirement benefits are exempt from income tax in Indiana, and property taxes are lower than average. This makes the state relatively tax-friendly for many seniors. Income from pensions and retirement savings accounts is taxable, however.
  • Rates of property crime and violent crime in Jeffersonville are both slightly above the national average. Most assisted living facilities have CCTV and are staffed 24 hours a day, so seniors can feel safe while they are living in the facility.
