What to Consider About Assisted Living in Hastings

Hastings is a medium-sized town on the Minnesota-Wisconsin border, near the place where the St. Croix River flows into the Mississippi headwaters. Home to nearly 22,700 people, 16% of whom are seniors aged 65 and over, Hastings has six assisted living facilities within its borders to look after local seniors, with many more between it and the greater Twin Cities area nearby. These facilities, like all residential care communities in the state, are overseen by the Minnesota Department of Health Facility Certification, Regulation and Licensing Division.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Hastings

  • The weather in Hastings is highly variable, in the way that upper Midwestern towns can be. Summer highs in Hastings average 82 degrees in July and August, while winter lows dip to an average of just 5 degrees in December and January. Spring and fall bring up to 31.5 inches of rain to Hastings, which can raise mold and pollen from the river green belt outside of town and cause issues for some seniors with asthma.
  • The cost of living in Hastings is roughly 11% higher than the national average for all household spending combined. Despite this, seniors in Hastings pay something close to 14% less for healthcare, owing partly to the abundance of excellent local clinics and hospitals.
  • Crime rates in Hastings are low by national standards. In all crime categories combined, Hastings reports roughly half the crimes of similar sized cities. Seniors are especially safe in Hastings, where violent crime rates are less than one-third the national average.
  • DARTS operates LOOP, a limited service scheduled route carrier. The main route, the Circulator, runs every Tuesday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., though dial-a-ride services are available with 24 hours' advance notice. Another local dial-a-ride, Transit Link, connects seniors in Hastings and other underserved areas in the region with the larger Twin Cities metro area to the north.
  • The Hastings area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Regina Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
  • Hastings has an array of community resources for seniors, including Hastings Community Education, an organization that offers caregiver training and support, senior transportation and notary services and special trips and local events for Hastings seniors, as well as more than three senior centers.
