For a small city, Allentown packs a lot to see and do for retirees. And if you're looking for an Allentown assisted living facility (ALF), you'll find all you need here to get started.
Allentown ALF costs vary depending on many factors: location, demand/supply, and amenities. According to a Genworth Financial survey, a one-bedroom in an Allentown assisted living facility averages $3,498 per month. Because nursing homes have higher levels of care (e.g. skilled nursing care 24/7), their costs are higher, sometimes considerably so. A private room in an Allentown nursing home averages $10,686 month, while a semi-private averages $9,353. At-home care options such as home health aides (help with bathing, dressing, etc.) average $4,004 a month and homemaker services (cooking, running errands, etc.) average $3,995. The overall cost of living in Allentown is 5% lower than the national average.
Get outside on one of the 2,000 acres of parks in the city - more acres per resident than any other city of its size in the U.S. One hundred-year-old West Park is home to over 200 species of trees and hosts a summer concert series. The Old-Fashioned Garden features over 100 rose varieties and many other flowers.
Among the annual events are the Mayfair Festival of the Arts with concerts, exhibits, dancers and storytellers. Since 1852, the Great Allentown Fair has engaged and educated visitors about the area's agricultural life with exhibits, concerts, food, and games.
The popular America On Wheels museum showcases transportation from the carriage to the bicycle to Indy racecars. Stop by the Da Vinci Science Center for some hands-on learning about science, math and technology..
