Located 35 miles east of Phoenix, Apache Junction is a popular destination for seniors looking to retire to a peaceful rural town that still has easy access to all the amenities of a big city. In fact, 33% of the population is adults aged 65 years and older who call Apache Junction home. Flanked by the Superstition and Goldfield mountain ranges and featuring a number of state and public parks, the city has plenty for outdoor enthusiasts to explore while enjoying the region's 294 days of sunshine each year. Apache Junction is a historically rich area with museums and ghost town tours, ideal for entertaining visiting family.
Apache Junction has 22 assisted living communities in and around the local area for seniors to choose from, costing an average of $3,700 according to Genworth’s Cost of Care Survey 2020. This is significantly lower than both the Arizona state and U.S. averages. Combined with a low cost of living, the pleasant year-round climate and an array of senior-related resources, Apache Junction is an ideal location for retirees looking for an assisted living community in Arizona.
As the easternmost suburb of Phoenix, Apache Junction shares its SeniorScore with the larger city. The SeniorScore assesses how a city caters to its elder residents' needs and wellbeing in four categories: Health & Safety, Recreation & Leisure, Finances and General Quality of Life. Apache Junction’s SeniorScore is 74, two points higher than the U.S. average and four points above the Arizona median score of 70.
Apache Junction achieves its highest score of 75 for General Quality of Life, mainly due to its pleasant year-round climate, with mild winters, warm summers and ideal levels of rainfall. The city also scores very well in Health & Safety, thanks to a large number of medical facilities and Medicare-registered physicians in the region, including the Mountain Vista Medical Center and Banner Goldfield Medical Center in Apache Junction itself.
The city’s lowest score is for Finances. This category is influenced by Apache Junction’s lower-than-average mean household income and Phoenix’s high sales tax. However, with low income and property taxes, the low cost of assisted living and a below-average cost of living, Apache Junction is still a great option for budget-conscious retirees.
Due to the low percentage of seniors that make up its population, Apache Junction scores 62 for Recreation & Leisure. However, with plenty of golf courses, shopping malls, movie theaters and parks in the local area, there are plenty of recreation facilities and leisure activities to keep older adults busy and active in their retirement.
As a suburb of Phoenix, assisted living costs in Apache Junction are likely to be similar to those in the larger city which, according to the Genworth Cost of Care Survey 2020, is $3,700 per month. This is $200 less than the Arizona state average and $600 below the U.S. national median cost of $4,300.
Assisted living rates in Apache Junction and Phoenix are some of the lowest in Arizona. The only area where seniors can expect to pay less is Lake Havasu City, where average costs are $3,650 per month. Elsewhere in the state, costs are significantly higher than in Apache Junction.

The highest rates in Arizona are found in Flagstaff where monthly costs soar to $4,875.
