What to Consider About Assisted Living in McLean
McLean has a rich history that stretches back to 1902 when John R. McLean and Senator Stephen Elkins got a charter to operate an electrified railroad, which would make it easy for sightseers to see the Great Falls of the Potomac. Today, the city has more than 48,000 residents, roughly one in five of whom are aged 65 and over.
Seniors seeking out assisted living in the McLean area have over five dozen options to choose from, including the four assisted living facilities that are in McLean proper. These facilities are regulated by the Virginia Department of Social Services.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in McLean
- According to the American Lung Association, ozone pollution levels in Fairfax County are high, with the county receiving an F for this type of pollution. However, particle pollution levels are low, with the organization giving the county a B for short-term particle pollution levels and a passing score for annual particle pollution levels. This may be a consideration for seniors who are researching assisted living options in McLean.
- Virginia does not impose state income tax on Social Security benefits, and up to $12,000 in all other types of retirement income may be deducted. This may allow seniors to put more money toward assisted living expenses in McLean.
- McLean is a relatively safe community, which may provide peace of mind for seniors and their families. On a 100-point safety index, McLean is rated 59, indicating that the city is safer than 59 percent of U.S. cities of all sizes.
- The McLean area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Tyson's Corner Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- McLean is a relatively expensive place to live, with an overall cost of living that is well over double both the state and national average. While this is mainly due to the high cost of real estate, groceries and transportation expenses are also higher than in the nation as a whole, which may affect the cost of assisted living.
- Over the course of a year, temperatures in McLean range between 25 degrees and 86 degrees, which may be well-suited for seniors who enjoy experiencing four distinct seasons. The city receives about 44 inches of rainfall and 20 inches of snowfall annually, versus the national averages of 38 inches and 28 inches, respectively.
