What to Consider About Assisted Living in Roy

In Roy, assisted living facilities are regulated by the Bureau of Health Facility Licensing, a division of the Utah Department of Health. This office is responsible for licensing assisted living facilities and ensuring that they comply with state rules and regulations. It conducts regular unannounced inspections of facilities and investigates any complaints made by residents or family members.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Roy

  • Utah provides an income tax credit and property tax credit for seniors aged 66 and older. These credits can be used for additional income to help seniors enjoy the activities on offer in Roy or help pay for assisted living. 
  • The cost of living in Utah is about 5% below the national average, and the cost of living in Roy is 6% below the national average. This can help seniors to afford a more comfortable retirement.
  • The summers in Roy can be very hot, and the winters tend to be cold with an average of 32 inches of snow, which is above the national average of 28 inches. This can result in expensive heating and cooling bills each month, but it does mean that active seniors get to enjoy both summer and winter outdoor pursuits.
  • Roy has a lower crime rate than most cities in the United States. However, if seniors are still worried about the possibility of violent crime, they can rest assured that most assisted living communities in Roy have 24/7 security monitoring systems.
