What to Consider About Assisted Living in Topton
Topton was originally a swampy area that later became a mining town when iron was discovered under farms. The borough was officially created in 1876, and almost 150 years later, a little more than 2,000 people call this place home. Aging residents can move into one of two assisted living facilities within the borough. Another 30 are located in around the area as well as in cities like Reading and Boyertown.
Pennsylvania's assisted living facilities are divided into two categories: assisted living residences or adult care homes. These are monitored and licensed by the Department of Aging and the Department of Public Welfare.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Topton
- The air quality in Topton could be a concern for area seniors. While the American Lung Association gave it a C rating when it comes to 24-hour particle pollution levels, Berks County got a failing grade in the ozone category.
- Seniors who are living on a fixed income may find that they end up with more money in their budgets thanks to Pennsylvania's tax policies when it comes to retirement income. IRAs, 401(k)s and Social Security are exempt from taxes.
- Topton has no facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital located in Allentown.
- Topton's cost of living is about 3 percent less overall than the average for the rest of the country, but goods and services and healthcare costs run just above average, which could translate to slightly higher assisted living costs.
- Violent crime rates in Topton are almost 67 percent lower than the national average, but when it comes to property crime, Topton is even safer. Property crime is just 28 percent of the national average. This makes the city a relatively safe choice for seniors or their loved ones who may be coming to visit.
- The weather in Topton can be beneficial for seniors who are sensitive to extreme heat. Summer highs usually only reach the low to mid 70s, and winters hover around the freezing mark.
Note: Data on this page was updated in 2019 and based on the latest 2018 figures.
