What to Consider About Assisted Living in Hendersonville
Hendersonville, home to the late Johnny Cash and the late Roy Orbison, is located just 18 miles northeast of downtown Nashville in Tennessee. Over 50,000 residents call this community home, and 14.6 percent of the population are seniors. These seniors can choose from seven assisted living facilities within city limits and over 40 in the surrounding area. These communities are regulated by the Tennessee Department of Health Board for Licensing Health Care Facilities and are defined as facilities which provide room and board along with assisted care living services.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Hendersonville
- Hendersonville has plenty of arts and culture for seniors to enjoy including Rock Castle, Spring Haven Mansion, the Drakes Creek Park and Trinity Music City. The Hendersonville Senior Center offers seniors a variety of fitness and educational programs, dances and outings.
- The cost of living in Hendersonville is 17.4 percent higher than the U.S. average. This is primarily due to housing and transportation costs which are 46 and 18 percent above average respectively. Health care is comparable to national medians, and groceries are slightly below which can benefit seniors on a budget.
- Hendersonville’s weather is seasonal with hot, muggy summers and cold, wet winters. Temperatures range from highs of 89 degrees Fahrenheit in July to lows of 26 degrees in January. Snowfall is only 3 inches per year on average, but rain falls around 50 inches annually. This variable climate may have an impact on seniors who enjoy the outdoors.
- Hendersonville is a safe option for seniors because crime here is relatively low. The city is safer than 43 percent of other U.S. cities and has less exposure to crime than Nashville. Violent and property crime scored 19.7 and 32.6 out of 100 respectively.
- Seniors who don’t drive are eligible for reduced fares on public buses provided by RTA. Mid-Cumberland Public Transit provides curb-to-curb transportation Monday through Friday for seniors residing in Sumner County.
- Tennessee does not have standard income tax so all income from retirement, including Social Security benefits, is not taxed by the state. This leaves extra income for seniors to put toward assisted living.
