What to Consider About Assisted Living in Gardnerville

The town of Gardnerville is located in Douglas County, Nevada and is inhabited by nearly 6,000 people. Local seniors, who comprise about 21% of the population, receive access to nutrition programs, transportation services and recreation and wellness programs through Douglas County Senior Services. 

Gardnerville seniors who are unable to live at home alone may transition to one of the town's two assisted living facilities. The official licensure term for assisted living facilities in Nevada is residential facilities for groups, and they are governed by the Nevada Division of Health. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Gardnerville

  • The overall cost of living in Gardnerville is about 5% higher than the statewide average and 25% higher than the national average. This is primarily due to the high cost of housing, which may drive up assisted living costs, but seniors may also expect to spend about 14% more on healthcare here than elsewhere in the nation. 
  • On a 100-point crime index, the violent crime rate in Gardnerville is slightly higher than the national average at 23.6, and the property crime rate is about eight points higher than the national average at 43.2. Seniors may want to find an assisted living facility that keeps residents safe using alarm systems and security cameras. 
  • Summers in Gardnerville are hot and dry with July highs around 91 degrees and very little humidity. The town gets about 29 inches of annual snowfall, and winter lows are around 19 degrees. To keep residents occupied when the weather is hot or cold, many assisted living facilities offer educational programs and social events.
  • Air quality in Gardnerville is very good, which may make the city an option for assisted living for seniors with conditions that are worsened by smog or particle pollution. On a scale of 1 to 100, the town's air quality is rated 71, versus the national average of 58.  
  • Nevada does not impose a state income tax, which may leave more money in the budget for assisted living expenses in Gardnerville. 
  • The Gardnerville area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Carson Valley Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
