What to Consider About Memory Care in Greendale

The small Milwaukee County village of Greendale is home to just 14,000 people, but it has a large senior community that makes up nearly a quarter of the population. The Milwaukee County Department of Aging cites Alzheimer's and dementia a growing problem among seniors in the county, and it's projected that roughly 14,000 people in the county are living with dementia.

To accommodate the needs of local seniors with dementia, Greendale has two memory care facilities, and there are nearly a dozen more nearby. While memory care may be provided in a freestanding, dedicated building, many are located in licensed community-based residential facilities that provide specialized services for residents with Alzheimer's and dementia. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Greendale

  • Greendale is rated as less save than 80 percent of U.S. cities, and its crime rate is markedly higher than that of other similarly sized cities across the country. However, it's worth noting that a majority of the crime that takes place in this city is property-related, and its rate of violent crime is significantly below the national average. This may provide peace of mind for families whose senior loved one resides in memory care here.
  • Living expenses in Greendale are slightly higher than the U.S. average, with health care costs coming in about 5 percent more than the national median. This may be a consideration for seniors and families with tight memory care budgets.
  • Summers in Greendale are warm with July highs in the low 80s, and winters are cold, dry and windy with January lows around 16 degrees. The city gets 45 inches of snowfall annually, which may be a consideration for families who travel to memory care facilities in Greendale to visit loved ones. 
  • In Wisconsin, seniors do not pay state income tax on Social Security and public pension income, but all other types of retirement income are fully taxable. This may affect how much seniors and families have to put toward memory care in Greendale.
