What to Consider About Assisted Living in Sandy Spring
Sandy Spring is part of the Capital Region, located just outside Washington, D.C. Seniors interested in the past can explore the community's history, which includes a stop on the Underground Railroad and visits by President Roosevelt and Winston Churchill. Around 6,000 people call the town home and more than 18% of the population are aged 65 or older. There are 82 assisted living facilities in the Sandy Springs area, all licensed and monitored by the Maryland Department of Health, Assisted Living Unit.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Sandy Spring
- Montgomery County, including Sandy Spring, is a member of the AARP Network of Age-Friendly Communities, meaning that its elected leadership “has made the commitment to actively work toward making their town, city or county a great place for people of all ages,” according to AARP.
- Public transport in Sandy Spring is provided by the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority. Passengers aged 65 and older are eligible for a reduced fare. Seniors unable to use the fixed-route services may be eligible for MetroAccess, a door-to-door paratransit service.
- The Sandy Spring area is home to world-class medical facilities, including MedStar Montgomery Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.

Annual particle pollution received a passing grade in the State of the Air 2019 report, while 24-hour particle pollution received an A. However, ozone pollution was higher, receiving a D in the report. Seniors with respiratory conditions may find this impacts their health.
- The Sandy Spring Museum is the center of arts and culture in the town and seniors can visit exhibits, see resident artists at work or take a class. Montgomery County is also home to galleries and theaters that may appeal to those interested in art and culture, including Olney Theater Center and Glenstone Museum.
- The overall cost of living in Sandy Spring is 177 on the Sperling index, 77 points higher than the national average. Although this is largely due to the high cost of housing, everyday costs such as transport and groceries are also higher than the national average. Healthcare costs in Sandy Spring are equal to the U.S. average, which may help the budget of seniors with regular medical expenses.
