Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Rogersville
- The Rogersville area has no facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital located in Springfield.
- Rogersville has an overall crime rate that is higher than the national average. Residents who live in the area will have a 1 in 587 chance of becoming a victim of violent crime and a 1 in 28 chance of becoming a victim of property crime. Seniors should take normal precautions to protect their personal safety and belongings.
- The overall cost of living is comparable to the national average despite transportation costs that are 12 percent higher. Seniors will see some savings in grocery costs when compared to the U.S. average.
- Rogersville seniors will face an average low of 21 degrees Fahrenheit in January and an average high of 87 degrees in July. The average rainfall is around 46 inches annually, which is higher than the U.S. average of 39 inches. Seniors who enjoy spending time outdoors might find these weather extremes to be somewhat challenging.
- There are no public transit options in Rogersville, except for a limousine service, so seniors in need of transportation will have to use on-demand ride programs such as Lyft and Uber or depend on friends and family.
- Social Security income is partially taxed in Missouri, and retirement accounts are taxed as regular income, so the state is only considered moderately retirement-friendly. Seniors may qualify for a property tax credit.
