Located in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, North Wales is part of the greater Philadelphia metro area. One out of every five of its 3,250 citizens is aged 65 and over. To accommodate North Wales seniors who require assistance with the tasks of daily living, there are three assisted living facilities in town and 73 more in nearby communities.
Assisted living residences (ALRs), as assisted living facilities are called in Elizabeth and the rest of the state, are licensed by the Department of Aging, Office of Long Term Living, Division of Licensing.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in North Wales
- The cost of living in North Wales is 128.5, compared to a national and state average of 100. The main factor is the high housing cost of 172.7, nearly double the state average of 88.7. Health and transportation cost are also relatively high in North Wales, which may impact family members moving to be closer to loved ones in assisted living.
- North Wales' violent crime is 12, about half the national average of 22.7, the city's property crime rate is 22.7, nearly 13 points lower than the national average of 35.4. This may give seniors peace of mind regarding their safety while running errands in town.
- On average, there are 207 sunny days annually in North Wales, two more than the national average. Summer highs in July are near 85 degrees, and winter lows in January hit 22. Seniors may wish to ask what precautions are taken to ensure residents' comfort when extreme temperatures hit.
- According to the EPA's National Air Toxics Assessment, North Wales has an air quality of 50, somewhat lower than the national average of 58. This may mean that seniors with respiratory concerns may not breathe as easily here as in cities of similar size across the U.S.
- Pennsylvania seniors, including those in North Wales, don't pay tax on retirement income from Social Security, IRAs and 401(k)s. Additionally, pension income for residents aged 60 or older is also exempt. Property tax rates are somewhat higher than the national average, which might not impact seniors living in assisted living facilities.
- The North Wales area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Suburban Community Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
