    What to Consider About Memory Care in Surprise

    The state of Arizona is home to more than 130,000 people who are living with dementia and other memory-related diseases. There is a sizable senior population of 21.6 percent of the population of 117,517 in Surprise, AZ. Those seniors who are living with a memory-related illness have access to 63 facilities that provide specialized assisted living services known as directed care services. These services offer dignified care to seniors who are unable to speak up for themselves, ask for assistance or express their needs.

    • The Surprise area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as Banner Sun Health Research Institute’s Cleo Roberts Memory Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.

    • Surprise is located in a desert climate that receives only nine inches of rain per year, 39 inches less than the U.S. average. The summers are hot with an average high of 105 degrees, but the winters are warm, sunny and free of snow making it a great place for those who are sensitive to the cold. 

    • While Surprise is further north than Phoenix it is still considered part of the greater Phoenix metro area which received a very poor ozone ranking from the American Lung Association. The Phoenix-Mesa-Scottsdale area is ranked as the eighth most polluted city in the country — something that could adversely affect seniors with a respiratory condition. 

    • Seniors and their loved ones can feel very secure in Surprise, due to low crime rates. Violent crime is rated at 10 out of 100 (one being the safest), which is considerably lower than the national average of 31.1. Property crime is also lower than the national average, rated at 31.4 compared to 38.1, respectively.
