What to Consider About Assisted Living in Bryn Mawr
Bryn Mawr is a small community with a history that reaches back to the late 1600s when it was given to William Penn by King Charles II as part of a land charter. Today, the community is home to about 16,000 people, roughly 14% of whom are aged 65 and over.
There are over 50 assisted living facilities in the Bryn Mawr region, two of which are located in the city proper. These facilities may either be classified as assisted living residences, which are licensed by Department of Aging, or personal care homes, which are licensed by the Department of Public Welfare, depending on the populations they serve.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Bryn Mawr
- Bryn Mawr seniors do not pay state income tax on their Social Security income or withdrawals from retirement savings accounts, and taxpayers age 60 and older do not pay state income tax on public or private pension income. This may leave more money in the budget for assisted living expenses.
- Bryn Mawr has comfortable summers with July highs around 83 degrees and relatively comfortable humidity levels, which may appeal to seniors who are sensitive to heat. Winters are cold with January highs around 37 degrees, and the region receives an average of just 21 inches of annual snowfall.
- Ozone pollution levels in the Bryn Mawr region are very high, which may adversely affect the health of seniors, particularly those with certain health conditions. The American Lung Association gives Montgomery County an F for this type of pollution and ranks the region 21 out of 228 metropolitan areas for high ozone days.
- The Bryn Mawr area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Bryn Mawr Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- The overall crime rate in Bryn Mawr is near the U.S. median, both for cities of all population sizes and cities with similar population sizes. However, the majority of the crime that takes place in this city is property-related. Violent crimes occur at a much lower rate than average, which may provide peace of mind for seniors.
- The overall cost of living is nearly 70% higher than state and national averages. While this is primarily due to the very high cost of housing, seniors may also expect to pay about 15% more on healthcare here than in the average U.S. city. This may be a concern for seniors with tight retirement budgets.
