What to Consider About Memory Care in Tustin

The city of Tustin, California, is a sizeable community of 80,500 people, 10 percent of whom are seniors age 65 and over, just east of Santa Ana, in Southern California's hilly Orange County. Seniors in Tustin with Alzheimer's disease, as well as several other forms of dementia, can find comfortable long-term residential care in any of the 57 memory care facilities that operate in and around the city limits. These facilities are licensed through the California Department of Social Services Adult Care Licensing Program, as are assisted living and skilled nursing facilities.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Tustin

  • The weather in Tustin is mild by Southern California standards. Located just east of Santa Ana, Tustin gets the full effect of California's dry Santa Ana winds, which cool the summer highs down to an average of 85 degrees Fahrenheit, albeit at the risk of spreading grass fires in the dry season. This can cast smoke and dust that seniors with asthma could have issues managing, even inside climate-controlled memory care facilities. Winters are mild, with average lows of just 40 degrees overnight and 14 inches of rain annually.
  • Tustin's cost of living is 89 percent higher than the national median, though it's only around 10 percent higher than the average cost of living in California across most categories. Much of this is in an elevated housing cost, which only weakly affects seniors in memory care. Healthcare, however, is a solid 11 percent less expensive in Tustin than it is elsewhere in the country.
  • Crime in Tustin is far lower than in the rest of the United States. Crime in all categories is one-third lower than the national rate. Property crime rates are significantly lower than in other areas near Los Angeles.
  • The Tustin area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as Orange County Global Medical Center and Fountain Valley Regional Hospital and Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
