Victoria is located about 30 miles inland from the Gulf of Mexico approximately halfway between Houston and San Antonio. Seniors in this smaller city enjoy the benefits of living in a close-knit community but still have ready access to health care and other amenities that two of the state's largest cities provide. Victoria is warm and sunny year-round. Residents can spend time at the Texas Zoo, in one of the area parks or enjoying shopping and dining in the downtown district.

There are four assisted living communities in Victoria with an average cost per month of $4,450 according to Genworth Financial's Cost of Care Survey 2019. This is several hundred dollars higher than the national average of $4,051 per month. Texas doesn't levy a state income tax, and this factor plus the lower cost of living in Victoria may make it easier for seniors on a budget to afford assisted living.



The SeniorScore for Victoria, Texas



SeniorScores indicate how elderly-friendly a particular city is. This livability index rates cities in four segments: Health & Safety, Recreation & Leisure, Finances and General Quality of Life. Scores are based on a scale of one to 100, and information is gathered from government and private databases. It's useful for retirees who wish to determine a particular destination's livability for the elderly.

Victoria scores well for Finances partly due to the lack of income tax in Texas and the low cost of living in the city. While assisted living costs are higher compared to national figures, nursing home fees, adult day care costs and home health care fees are notably lower, which indicates that seniors have additional options according to their budget.

The area scores high for General Quality of Life with a rating of 83. Ideal mean temperatures and adequate rainfall indicate that residents have comfortable weather year-round. The city also has good air quality, a low population density and a high public safety rating. For seniors who enjoy the freedom of experiencing their community independently, Victoria offers few environmental barriers.

Victoria scores lowest in Health & Safety, and although the city has a high number of registered Medicare physicians, there are only hour hospitals in close range of the downtown area and a low number of fire stations.
