A small city on the southern shore of Lake Sammamish, Issaquah was named one of the “best Seattle suburbs for nature lovers'' by Seattle Magazine. The city offers scenic views of the Cascade foothills and more than 200 miles of hiking trails, as well as access to Lake Sammamish State Park, where seniors can walk, swim or picnic. Getting close to nature isn’t the only reason to retire in Issaquah. The city also boasts a low crime rate, plentiful health care resources and easy access to Seattle’s many world-class attractions. With this appealing setting, it's no wonder that Issaquah’s population grew 29.8% between April 2010 and July 2019.
To meet the needs of its senior population, there are 17 assisted living facilities in Issaquah. Although assisted living cost data isn’t available for Issaquah itself, the average cost in nearby Seattle is $6,750, reports Genworth’s 2020 Cost of Care Survey.
The SeniorScore is an unbiased rating system that helps seniors compare cities across the country. More than 100 factors go into a city’s rating, including weather patterns, sales tax rates and the size of its senior population. Issaquah’s SeniorScore is 70 — two points higher than the Washington State average. The city got its best score in the Health & Safety subcategory, earning a 66. Recreation & Leisure and Finances both earned a 64 while General Quality of Life was somewhat lower at 54.
Seniors can look forward to a safe, comfortable retirement in Issaquah. The city’s violent crime rate is far lower than the state average, and with a high number of fire stations, help isn’t far away in the event of a fire. Health care resources are also abundant and include 353 pharmacies and a high number of doctors who accept seniors’ Medicare plans. Four local hospitals are ready to care for seniors’ injuries and illnesses, and several more facilities are just a short drive away in Seattle, including the top-ranked University of Washington Medical Center.
The Seattle area is famous for its overcast, rainy weather, and these conditions contributed to Issaquah’s low General Quality of Life score. The city gets nearly 40% more rainfall than the national average. This weather, along with the city’s very poor air quality, may interfere with retirees’ plans for outdoor fun. On the bright side, the area enjoys warm summer weather, a high-quality water supply and very good public schools.
