What to Consider About Assisted Living in Zelienople

Zelienople, located in west-central Pennsylvania, was named by its founder Detmar Basse in 1802, after his daughter Zelie. Today, the city is home to a thriving senior community that makes up more than 24% of its total residents. Seniors who are thinking of transitioning into assisted living have two facilities to choose from in the city proper and an additional 52 facilities located in surrounding towns and cities. In Zelienople, just like in all of Pennsylvania, these facilities are known as assisted living residences and personal care homes, which are monitored and licensed by the Department of Aging.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Zelienople

  • The cost of living in Zelienople is 106.6, higher than the U.S. average of 100, which could be a concern for seniors looking for assisted living in an affordable city. Although seniors can expect to pay less for groceries and healthcare here than in other locations in the state and country, transportation expenses are higher than both the state and national averages at 122, something for seniors to consider when preparing their monthly budgets.
  • Crime rates are low in Zelienople, which might give safety-conscious seniors and their families some peace of mind. The city has a violent crime rate of 8.6 and a property crime rate of 21.6, both considerably lower than the respective U.S. averages of 22.7 and 35.4.
  • Seniors with chronic respiratory issues may want to select a city with better air quality for retirement. The city has an air quality rating of 35 out of 100, more than 20 points lower than the national average of 58.
  • Pennsylvania does not tax seniors on Social Security benefits, retirement savings account income or pensions, which could help Zelienople seniors have more money to put toward their monthly living expenses.
  • The Zelienople area has no facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital located in Cranberry.
  • Zelienople has year-round temperatures that range between 19 and 82 degrees. This city may be an ideal location for seniors wanting to retire somewhere that doesn’t have extreme hot or cold weather.
