What to Consider About Assisted Living in Hastings

Hastings is home to about 25,000 people, almost 17% of whom are aged 65 and over. It has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Midland Area Agency on Aging, an organization that provides meal programs, fitness classes and outreach opportunities to area seniors, as well as one senior center. 

In Hastings, as in the rest of the state, assisted living facilities are governed by the Nebraska Division of Public Health, Department of Health and Human Services, Department of Licensure and Regulation. Hastings has two facilities, both of which are licensed to provide meals, shelter and regularly scheduled care to at least four people. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Hastings

  • Assisted living in Hastings may be a good option for seniors who have limited means. The city's overall cost of living is about 15% below the national median and roughly 10% lower than the average Nebraska city, which may result in relatively affordable assisted living expenses.  
  • Compared to the rest of the nation, Hastings has a fairly high rate of property crime, coming in around 15 points higher than the United States as a whole on a 100-point scale, but its violent crime rate is about three points below the national average. Seniors may want to avoid being out alone in the city by finding an assisted living facility that organizes day trips and other activities. 
  • Hastings' weather is typical of Nebraska, with summer highs around 88 and winter lows in the mid-teens. Seniors who prefer to experience four distinct seasons may enjoy the region's climate.
  • The air quality in Hastings is very good with a rating that is 15 points higher than the national average of a 100-point index. This is associated with a decreased risk of respiratory illnesses and certain types of cancer, which may make it a good option for seniors looking for assisted living.  
  • The Hastings area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Mary Lanning Healthcare, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
