With its arid climate, abundance of public parks and easy access to health care services, this small city located in the San Jacinto Valley attracts retirees looking for the ideal combination of amenities, great weather and affordability. One in five residents here are age 65 or older and a 248% increase in the elderly population of Riverside County is projected by the year 2060. Seniors enjoy discounts on green fees at the county-run golf course, while veterans, Medicare enrollees and adults 60 and older qualify for discounted fares on all Riverside Transit Agency routes. The entire fleet of RTA buses is ADA-compliant and accessible for riders who use a wheelchair or mobility scooter.
To help seniors discover the most senior-friendly locations around the country, Caring.com conducted a new study, “The Best and Worst Places for Senior Living.” The Caring Senior Living Report analyzes and ranks 300 cities and 50 states on the quality of senior living in that area. The cities were graded using 46 metrics across five categories: Health Care, Senior Living & Housing, Affordability, Quality of life, and Transportation.
