What to Consider About Memory Care in Sacramento County
Sacramento County occupies a large section of valley floor at the junction of the Sacramento and American Rivers, approximately 100 miles northeast of San Francisco. Just under 14 percent of Sacramento County's 1.5 million people are seniors age 65 and over, many of them are living with a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease or another form of dementia.
Seniors with dementia who need full-time supervision and care from trained staff often live in one of the county's 52 memory care facilities. In California, all residential care facilities must be licensed through the California Department of Social Services Adult Care Licensing program, which inspects sites and responds to concerns reported by the public.
- Sacramento County's weather is generally mild, with warm summers and rainy winters. Summer highs in Sacramento average 94 degrees in July, while January lows dip to an average of 39. The region gets 22 inches of rain a year, which raises pollen and mold counts all along the river areas and causes some trouble for seniors with asthma and other allergy complications.
- Sacramento County's cost of living is unusually low for a major metro area in California, where overall costs average 69 percent above the national rate. Across the county, costs in all categories combined are only 30 percent above the national average, while healthcare is up to 10 percent less expensive here than the usual cost nationally.
- The crime rate in Sacramento County is about one-third higher overall than the national uniform crime rate, though it is weighted in favor of less-violent offenses.
