Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Thousand Oaks
- Like most of California, Thousand Oaks has an extremely high cost of living at 66% higher than the national average. This also outpaces the California average cost of living by 17 points. This is highly influenced by a housing market nearly 300% more expensive than the national average. Health and grocery costs are more in line with the national averages.
- Thousand Oaks is a very safe area, with both violent and property crime rates well below the national average. On a 100-point scale, with 100 being high crime, Thousand Oaks has a violent crime rate of 11.1 compared to 22.7 nationally. Property crime is at 21.2, with the national average at 35.4.
- Thousand Oaks offers a very comfortable climate to its residents, scoring an 8.8/10 on the BestPlaces Comfort Index. Summers are a bit warmer than the national average with an average high of around 89 degrees in the summer and lows rarely dropping below 44 degrees in winter. Sun shines more often than not, with 268 sunny days per year on average.
- There are 183 physicians per 100,000 people in Thousand Oaks, below the national average of 210. However, the city is also home to Los Robles Regional Medical Center, which offers high-quality health care and serves as the area’s only Level II trauma center. It also offers services such as stroke rehabilitation, geriatrics, oncology, orthopedic care and physical therapy and rehabilitation.
- Thousand Oaks’ sales tax rate is on the higher end at 7.25%. The state also has an income tax rate varying from 1% up to 13.3% depending on income, including most retirement income. These taxes can build up quickly, especially with additional federal taxes on retirement income. However, the state does not tax Social Security benefits.
- As of 2022, Ventura County joined the AARP Network of Age-Friendly Communities. This means that the county has dedicated itself to becoming more senior-friendly, developing resources and amenities to help seniors live comfortably in the area. Ventura County’s action plan includes strengthening transportation, creating age- and disability-friendly parks and developing more affordable residential care facilities.
