What to Consider About Assisted Living in Williamsville

Named after settler Jonas Williams, Williamsville, N.Y., is a village of approximately 5,200 people in northern Erie County. The median age in Williamsville is 50, which means four out of 10 residents are 55 years old and up. The village has a proportionally larger number of assisted living facilities (ALFs), boasting 43 communities. Of these, 35 are in neighboring regions such as Kenmore and Clarence Center. ALFs in Williamsville are able to help seniors with both basic and more intensive aid, such as personal care, supervision and observation and nursing services. They are licensed and regulated through the New York Department of Health.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Williamsville

  • Williamsville is like most other areas of New York in that the climate poses some difficulty. The Sperling’s Comfort Index is lower than the national average (46 out of 100 versus 54), largely because of harsher winters. The massive amount of snowfall (90 inches per year) can make it harder for seniors to get outside or travel. Residents usually see temperatures in the range of 18 degrees in the winter to 80 degrees in the summer.

  • Williamsville gives seniors a slight financial advantage, with an overall cost of living 6.9 percent lower than the national average and 29 percent lower than the state average. The only expense areas higher than average are utilities and miscellaneous costs such as restaurants.

  • The National Air Toxics Assessment gives Williamsville an air quality rank of 68 out of 100. The village thus might be easier for seniors than other locations in regard to respiratory health, as the national average rank is 58.

  • Property crime in Williamsville is roughly comparable to the national average (39.5 out of 100 versus 38.1, with 100 being the worst). The bigger issue seniors and their loved ones might experience is violent crime, which exceeds the national average of 31.1 by 7.7 percent.

  • Williamsville is home to world-class medical facilities, including Millard Fillmore Suburban Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.

  • Williamsville is a member of the AARP Network of Age-Friendly Communities, meaning that its elected leadership “has made the commitment to actively work toward making their town, city or county a great place for people of all ages,” according to AARP.
