About Menifee
In Menifee, 21% of households are one person, close to the 20% for Riverside County and below the 24% statewide figure. Among residents 65 or older, 25% live alone, compared with 21% countywide, and 8% of residents are 75 or older, against 6% in the county. The town has 37,247 housing units. Only 20% of homes are rented, compared with 31% in the county, and just 4% sit in buildings of 5 or more units. Homes built before 1960 make up 2% of the stock.
Because so many older residents live alone in owner-occupied houses, the person who ends up arranging a cleanup is often a relative, an executor or a neighbor who noticed something was wrong, and less often a landlord. For a death that went unnoticed for some time, unattended death cleanup is the service families usually ask about, and crime scene cleanup in Murrieta covers the neighboring town to the south.
