What to Consider About Assisted Living in Ashtabula
Ashtabula, Ohio gets its name—which means “always enough fish to be shared around”—from its location on the Ashtabula River and Lake Erie. Located in the northeast corner of the state, the city is home to 18,371 residents. About 29 percent of those are at or older than age 55 and at some point may need the services provided in an assisted living community. Four of the seven assisted living facilities (ALFs) serving this community are located in the neighboring cities of Austinburg, Madison, Conneaut and Geneva. The Ohio Department of Health serves as the regulatory agency for licensing and inspection.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Ashtabula
- Seniors who love snow will find no shortage of it in Ashtabula, as the city gets more than seven feet of it every year on average. While temperatures don’t dip quite as low as they do in other snow-rich regions, bottoming at around 20 Fahrenheit, the Sperling’s Comfort Index rank is still lower than average.
- Housing in Ashtabula is a steal at just 27 percent of the national average, bringing the overall cost of living down to 74.5 percent of the national average. The only area exceeding the national average is transportation, and even that’s higher by just 2 percent. That puts more money in the pockets of seniors, who often have more limited funds available to spend.
- The cheaper cost of living in Ashtabula might come with a higher cost of safety for seniors. Violent crime and property crime rates exceed the national averages by 50.6 and 42.6 percent, respectively.
- Seniors will find plenty of entertainment in venues in Ashtabula such as Walnut Beach, music in Cornelius Park, wineries, the Ashtabula Mall, Hubbard House, Ashtabula Maritime Museum and antique car shows.
- Seniors who need transportation can use the Ashtabula County Trans System or Richmond Transportation. The city also offers a door-to-door service to areas that aren’t accessible by the point deviation bus routes.
- Ashtabula is home to world-class medical facilities, including Ashtabula County Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
