What to Consider About Assisted Living in Tulsa
Tulsa, Oklahoma, is located in an area known as "Green Country" due to its robust vegetation and many lakes and hills. The area is also home to more than 48,000 seniors, some of who may benefit from living in an assisted care facility. To support those seniors, Tulsa has 21 assisted living facilities located within city limits.
Assisted living centers and Residential Care Homes (RCHs) in Tulsa and the rest of Oklahoma are overseen by the Long-Term Care Services Division of The Department of Health.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Tulsa
- Oklahoma is tax-friendly towards seniors. While retirement savings account income and pensions are partially tax, no taxes are levied on Social Security benefits. This might be good news to Tulsa seniors who rely on these types of income.
- Tulsa Transit provides bus service to most of the city. Seniors and those on Medicaid are eligible for reduced fares, which can be purchased individually or in 7- or 31-day unlimited ride packages.
- The cost of living in Tulsa is 89.6, considerably lower than the national average of 100. Groceries also rank lower than the average, but seniors can expect to pay more for healthcare and transportation, which both rank higher than the average.
- The Tulsa area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Hillcrest Hospital South and Saint Francis Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- Tulsa has a violent crime rating of 48.3 and a property crime rating of 74.3, both significantly higher than the national averages of 22.7 and 35.4, respectively. Despite the high crime rates in the area, seniors living in assisted living facilities are kept safe due to security systems, alarms, and cameras.
- Residents of Tulsa enjoy all four seasons with summer highs reaching 93 degrees and winter lows of 27. Despite getting 43 inches of rain and nine inches of snow, the city still gets 227 sunny days annually, 22 more than the national average of 205. Families may want to ensure that facility rooms have individual climate controls to keep seniors comfortable regardless of the weather.
