Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Scottsdale
Seniors who qualify for long-term care can receive financial help for assisted living through the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS).

Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Arizona page.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Scottsdale
- With a daily high of 72 degrees, Scottsdale’s weather is ideal for six months out of the year. It receives significantly less precipitation than the national average and has far more sunny days. However, outdoor temperatures can soar well into the three digits in summer. Fortunately, assisted living and other senior facilities typically have state-of-the-art air conditioning units.
- The cost of living in Scottsdale is substantially higher than the national average and the Arizona average. However, health care costs are 7.8% less than the national average, which is appealing to many seniors.
- Scottsdale residents enjoy a great golfing scene, with six local golf courses making Golf Magazine’s list of the country’s top 100 courses.
- HonorHealth Scottsdale Shea Medical Center has been ranked by U.S News & World Report as a high performing general medical and surgical facility.
- Arizona provides a tax-friendly environment for seniors, with no inheritance taxes and no state withholding for Social Security payments.
- Scottsdale and surrounding communities have long been traditional destinations for snowbirds, which means that the senior populations expands considerably during the winter months. Whether this is a plus or a minus depends on personal preference — some don’t like the crowded conditions snowbirds often bring to the picture, while others welcome the opportunity to make new friends
- Seniors feel safe in Scottsdale because the city’s violent crime rate is far below the national average. On the other hand, the property crime rate is only just slightly below the national average.
