Located between Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish, Bellevue residents enjoy lush natural surroundings, scenic waterfront parks and convenient access to downtown Seattle and the Puget Sound. This desirable community stands out for its world-class attractions, including the Bellevue Arts Museum, Newcastle Beach Park and Bellevue Botanical Garden, which includes 53 acres of cultivated gardens and restored woodlands and wetlands. These amenities make Bellevue an ideal location for families as well as the city's 21,000 senior citizens, who represent 14% of the population.
Older adults in Bellevue benefit from excellent health care access and below-average costs. The city is home to the high-performing Overlake Medical Center, and a number of nationally ranked hospitals are located in nearby Seattle. Despite the city's above-average cost of living, residents pay 15% less for health care than consumers in other parts of the country. Additionally, this well-connected community has a strong long-term care network that includes more than 70 assisted living facilities. Residents in Washington's fifth-largest city typically pay $6,500 per month of care, according to Genworth Financial's national Cost of Care Survey.
Bellevue ranks well for its age-friendly amenities and overall livability. The city has a SeniorScore of 79, which is seven points higher than the national average and 11 points higher than the rest of the state. This proprietary ranking system analyzes more than 100 factors related to finances, health and safety, recreation and leisure and general quality of life. Bellevue received its highest scores for Health & Safety based on its robust medical infrastructure, which includes 19 hospitals, more than 470 long-term care facilities and 900 pharmacies. The city also has a high number of home health care providers and Medicare-registered physicians.
Recreation & Leisure metrics helped to boost the city's overall ranking thanks to the large number of movie theaters, shopping malls and grocery stores. The area is also home to a significant number of golf courses, neighborhood parks and fitness centers. These data points were bolstered by the city's mild winters, pleasant summers, above-average water quality and robust public transportation system, which earned the city a solid score of 67 out of 100 for General Quality of Life. From a financial perspective, Bellevue received a moderate ranking of 62 out of 100 based on the cost of living. Other influential factors included above-average property and sales taxes, and the relatively high cost of skilled nursing, assisted living and in-home care.
The SeniorScore™ is calculated based on over 100 variables, some of which are shown below. The final score is curved based on a linear curving method. For More info visit senioradvice.com/seniorscore.
Bellevue is located in close proximity to Seattle and, as such, the two cities share cost data on Genworth's 2021 Cost of Care Survey. The data shows that the average cost of assisted living in Bellevue is $6,750, which is over $2,000 more than the national average of $4,500 and $750 higher than the Washington state median of $6,000.
Seniors living in Walla Walla pay over $3,000 per month less for assisted living than those in Bellevue. Those in the nearby cities of Bremerton and Wenatchee pay $1,000 less on a monthly basis with an average cost of $5,750.
In-home care and home health care both have an average monthly care cost of $6,769, which is similar to the average cost of assisted living. Nursing home care costs significantly more with an average cost of $9,916 per month for a semiprivate room. Adult day health care is the most affordable option at $2,600 each month, however, this option will only suit seniors who require care services during the working week and have alternative arrangements in the evening and on weekends.
Note: Data for Bellevue was unavailable, so data for the nearest city, Seattle, was used instead.
