What to Consider About Assisted Living in Accokeek

Accokeek is a small city located along the Potomac River in southern Maryland. Although the area has been inhabited since around 2000 B.C., the first European settler to the area was Captain John Smith in 1608. These days, area residents, including the senior population of 975 people, can enjoy playing the lanes at the local bowling alley, painting while they sip a glass of wine at Wine & Design, viewing exhibits in local museums and strolling through the city’s parks.

Seniors who need help with daily living activities can find it in one of the two assisted living facilities in Accokeek, or in one of the 39 additional facilities located in nearby neighborhoods such as Alexandria, Waldorf and Temple Hills.

These facilities are licensed by the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and are called assisted living programs in Accokeek and throughout the state of Maryland.  

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Accokeek

  • Maryland does not tax Social Security benefits, which could help Accokeek seniors keep more money at tax time to put toward their monthly budgets.
  • The cost of living in Accokeek is 153, notably higher than the Maryland average of 124.6 and the U.S. average of 100. Seniors can expect to pay more for groceries, healthcare and transportation in this city than they would in other parts of the state or nation. This is something that seniors with restrictive budgets may want to consider before relocating to the city.
  • The air quality in Accokeek, rated at 59 out of 100, is only one point higher than the national average of 58. Seniors with respiratory or cardiovascular conditions may find that their symptoms remain stable in Accokeek’s  relatively clean air.
  • The Accokeek area has no facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital located in Alexandria.
  • Accokeek’s violent crime rate at 20.7, is two points lower than the national average of 22.7; however, the property crime rate at 38, is approximately three points higher than the national average of 35.4. Seniors may want to keep an eye on their belongings and take inventory of their surroundings when exploring the city.
  • The sun shines for 202 days each year in Accokeek, three more than the national average of 205, which might make the city an ideal location for seniors who like to be out and about when weather permits.
