What to Consider About Assisted Living in Bethesda
Located just outside Washington, D.C., Bethesda is one of the wealthiest and most highly educated communities in the country, as well as a hub for artistic and cultural events. As the city's population ages, a growing number of assisted living facilities have opened to help seniors age independently. Bethesda is home to eight of these facilities, while 52 more can be found in nearby towns such as Rockville, Silver Spring and Takoma Park. In Bethesda and throughout Maryland, assisted living communities are licensed as assisted living residences (ALRs) and regulated by The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Bethesda
- Bethesda's climate will appeal to seniors who don't mind its sweltering summers, with an average high temperature of 88 degrees in July.
- Bethesda is an affluent city and its high cost of living, which is more than twice that of the U.S. national average, may put it out of reach for some seniors' budgets.
- Maryland doesn't offer many tax breaks for seniors. While Social Security income is tax-exempt, other types of retirement income are taxable. Those seniors who are planning their estates should also be aware that Maryland levies both estate and inheritance taxes.
- Bethesda's diverse arts and culture scene offers something for all ages. In addition to shopping and dining, an assisted living center's outings could include catching a show at the Strathmore or Imagination Stage.
- Bethesda was ranked by one study as the most secure large city in the U.S. Seniors who choose to call Bethesda home can rest assured that its overall crime rate is below that of 65 percent of cities in Maryland.
- The Bethesda area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and Suburban Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
