Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Wadsworth

  • Ohio is a relatively tax-friendly retirement destination.

Additionally, the city of Wadsworth imposes a flat income tax rate of 1.4%, but all forms of retirement income are exempt. 
  • Wadsworth has lower crime rates than the average American city. On a 100-point scale, the city ranks at 11.4 for violent crime versus 22.7 nationally, and local property crime ranks at 29.5 compared to 35.4. Seniors in assisted living communities have added protection thanks to on-site security systems, such as cameras, locked gates and monitored entrances.
  • In terms of weather, Wadsworth scores 9.1 on a 10-point comfort index, meaning it's more pleasant than most locations across the country. Still, winters can be very cold with 34 inches of total snowfall. Summer might make up for the colder season, however, with temperatures reaching 83 degrees Fahrenheit. The city also offers low humidity throughout most the year, making it more comfortable for seniors who are sensitive to heat.
  • Wadsworth has 32.9% fewer physicians per capita than the national norm, which might make it difficult to schedule medical services. However, assisted living facilities typically offer timely health care on-site, such as physical therapy and vitals monitoring. Additionally, Wadsworth is home to Summa Health Wadsworth-Rittman Medical Center, a highly rated 113-bed hospital.
