What to Consider About Assisted Living in Manchester
Manchester, Tennessee, is most well known as the host city for the annual four-day Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, which is something the area’s thriving senior community that comprises over 16% of its residents may be interested in. Seniors who need assistance with dressing, bathing or other aspects of daily living can find help at one of the city’s three assisted living facilities, or in one of the three additional facilities located in nearby Tullahoma.
The Tennessee Department of Health officially recognizes these facilities as assisted care living facilities and residential care homes for the aged in Manchester and throughout the state.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Manchester
- The air quality in Manchester has been given a rating of 60 by the EPA, only two points higher than the national average of 58. Seniors with chronic cardiovascular or respiratory ailments may want to review pollen and ozone levels before going outdoors.
- Manchester seniors may find that Tennessee’s tax breaks leave them with more money to put toward their living expenses. The state doesn’t tax Social Security, retirement savings account income or pensions.
- The violent crime rate in Manchester is 46, 14 points higher than the U.S. median of 22.7; and the property crime rate is 68.7, 33 points higher than the national average. Seniors may wish to travel in groups, keep an eye on their belongings and surrounding and ask prospective facilities about security measures they have in place to ensure resident safety.
- The Manchester area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Unity Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- The cost of living in Manchester is 88.7, lower than both the Tennessee average of 96.2 and the national median of 100. Seniors here can expect to pay less for groceries and transportation than they would in other cities in Tennessee or the country. However, healthcare costs are exceptionally high at 137.1, something that seniors with chronic health conditions or who require frequent medical appointments might want to keep in mind.
- The sun shines over Manchester 205 days each year, on par with the U.S. norm, which should allow a lot of time for active seniors to take part in outdoor activities.
