Kansas City Assisted Living

Kansas City Assisted Living / Senior Living Options

The city that sits at the confluence of the Missouri and Kansas Rivers and straddles Missouri and Kansas, is a low cost assisted living option for seniors. It's also a city with a rich culture where you'll never run out of things to do. Planning on retiring in Kansas City? Here's an overview of the city and its surrounding areas.

We said low cost. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Kansas City is 5% below the national average for overall cost of living - not bad for a metro city with nearly 2 million people. The most recent home sales price averaged just $67,472. Expect to pay less than about $1,500 for car insurance. The following income is not taxed: Military, civil service, state/local government pensions. Out-of-state pensions are fully taxed.

The Kansas City area offers a number of assisted living options depending on your lifestyle. If you're a city-dweller, look at the Brookside neighborhood. Brookside is a walkable area with shops, restaurants and parks close to the University of Missouri-KC. A little further south is the suburb of Prairie Village. Here you'll find a quiet way of life with 64 acres of parks, nearby health care and the Brighton Gardens assisted living facility. Another suburb, east of downtown, is Lee's Summit where you'll find over 30 miles of multi-use trails, a farmers' market, and the nearby James Reed Wildlife Area with fishing, hiking, and bird watching. Lee's Summit was recently voted one of Money magazine's "Best Places to Live."

Here's a small sampling of Kansas City attractions: the National World War I Museum, the Nelson Atkins Museum of Art, the American Jazz Museum, the Negro Leagues Baseball and Museum. At the Crown Center, downtown, you'll find a shopping mall, ice skating, and restaurants like the Skies (45 stories in the sky) and the Frit'z Railroad where trains deliver food to your table. The urban farmers market, City Market, open every day, is one of the largest in the country. Ride bikes or walk along the Brush Creek River Walk. Stroll the Crossroads Art District.
