What to Consider About Memory Care in Yardley

Yardley is located in the extreme southeastern region of Pennsylvania. According to the Alzheimer's Association, there are at least 280,000 people currently living with Alzheimer's disease in the state. The borough has a population of nearly 2,400 people, with a little over 15 percent of residents over the age of 65. To support local seniors with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia, the Yardley area has 12 memory care facilities. Three facilities are located within the city proper while another nine are found in the surrounding area. These facilities are officially referred to as special care units, or SCUs, and they are housed within assisted living residences or personal care homes.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Yardley

  • Yardley seniors who are age 60 and over do not pay income tax from withdrawals from retirement accounts and those over 59.5 don't pay income tax on income from public pensions. Additionally, Social Security benefits are not taxed in Pennsylvania, which may leave more money in the budget for memory care expenses. 
  • The Yardley area has no facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital specializing in brain health and dementia care located in Langhorne.
  • The overall cost of living in Yardley is relatively high, which may be a consideration for seniors on a tight budget. Living costs average about 36 percent higher than state and national averages. While this is mainly due to the high cost of real estate in the area, healthcare expenses are also relatively high at 12 percent above the national average. This can make it difficult for seniors to manage a chronic condition like dementia.
  • Yardley residents enjoy a relatively low crime rate, which may provide peace of mind for families whose loved ones are in memory care in this city. On a scale of one to 100, with one representing low crime, the city's violent crime rate is 23.4 and the property crime rate is 24.1. This is compared to the respective national medians of 31.1 and 38.1.
