What to Consider About Assisted Living in Milford

Milford is where General Motors located its legendary first proving ground, and it's the place where the fist Corvettes and Camaros took to the track on a site that's nearly twice the size of the town itself. While the population has shrunk to just 6,500 people, nearly 16.5% of Milford's residents are seniors aged 65 and over.

The town is home to seven assisted living facilities within its borders, where seniors can get regular assistance with personal needs such as dressing and meal preparation. These senior living facilities are regulated by The Michigan Department of Human Services, which licenses many, but not all, of the residential senior care communities across the state.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Milford

  • Milford's climate is variable, with average summer high temperatures of 81 degrees and winter lows that average as little as 15. Milford gets 32 inches of rain in a typical year. This raises pollen and other allergens in the open land surrounding the town, which can be an issue for seniors with asthma or COPD.
  • The cost of living in Milford is 31% above the national average for most categories of costs. Seniors in Milford pay 17% less than the national average for healthcare.
  • Crime rates in Milford are extremely low, and the town is generally safe for seniors who enjoy outdoor activities. Across all crime categories, rates in Milford are just 15% the national rate for similar-sized townships. Violent crime is less violent still, with theft and property offenses making up the majority of crime reports.
  • Seniors can get around Milford on the ADA-compliant vehicles of the Highland/Milford Transportation Authority. This service offers on-demand rides throughout the Highland and Milford region for seniors aged 55 and over, or for adults with permanent disabilities. Rides can be scheduled between 24 hours and 2 months in advance.
  • The Milford area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Henry Ford Medical Center - Milford, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
  • Milford has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Western Oakland Meals On Wheels, an organization that provides senior nutrition services by delivering meals to local homes and serving hot lunches at local senior facilities, as well as two senior centers.
