Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Keller

  • Keller has several urgent care clinics and major hospitals to choose from, including Baylor Scott & White Emergency Hospital and Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Alliance, rated as “High Performing” in eight procedures by U.S. News and World Report.
  • Keller residents can get low-cost transportation through NETS, a door-to-door service that drives seniors to medical appointments, stores, work and many other destinations in northeast Tarrant County. NETS vans are equipped with ramps to accommodate wheelchairs and walkers.
  • The cost of living in Keller is almost 30% higher than the national average. Compared to the U.S. index of 100, housing (178.2), transportation (117.7), groceries (104.1) and utilities (101) are more expensive, with only health care (99.4) being slightly cheaper.
  • Texas has the seventh-highest median property tax rate in the country, and the average combined local and state sales tax rate is 8.19%, which contributes to Keller’s high cost of living. Texas residents don’t pay taxes on income or retirement benefits, though, so the state can still be affordable for many retirees.
  • With an average January low of 34.7 degrees and a July average high of 95.4, Keller is a great choice for lovers of warm and sunny weather. The city gets about 235 days of sunshine per year, compared to the U.S. average of 205, and just 0.9 inches of snow annually (U.S. average is 27.8).
  • Air quality in Keller is a bit worse than average, with an index of 49 out of 100 (the national average is 58). However, the city has very good water quality (90) compared to the national average of 55.
  • With very low violent and property crime rates, Keller is safer than 69% of U.S. cities. The city’s violent crime rate is a mere 0.53 (the national median is 4), and the property crime rate is 7.43 (the national median is 21).
