What to Consider About Memory Care in Avon

Avon is located in the north-central region of Connecticut and has a population of a little over 18,000 residents, almost 20 percent of whom are seniors. The area is served by the Alzheimer's Association Connecticut Chapter, which provides support for the 77,000 Connecticut seniors who have Alzheimer's disease.

Families researching memory care in the Avon region have over 30 options to choose from. There are three memory care facilities in Avon and another 29 facilities in the surrounding region. In Avon, memory care facilities are officially called special care units and are regulated by the Connecticut State Department of Health. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Avon

  • Avon's air quality may be a consideration for families whose senior loved ones have a respiratory illness. According to the American Lung Association, Hartford County's ozone pollution levels are very high, but the short-term particle pollution levels are very low. 
  • The cost of living in Avon is high, even by Connecticut's standards, which may be a consideration for families and seniors on a tight budget. Overall, living expenses are about 36 percent higher than the national average and 18 percent higher than the state average. While healthcare expenses are about 6 percent higher than the U.S. average, they are on par with the state median.
  • Avon is rated safer than 70 percent of U.S. cities of all sizes, and its crime rate is notably lower than other cities of similar size across the country. This may provide peace of mind for families whose senior loved ones reside in a memory care facility in this city.
  • Social Security benefits are taxable in Connecticut for seniors whose income level is above a certain level. All other types of retirement income, including pensions and withdrawals from retirement savings accounts, are fully taxable. This may reduce how much money can be put toward memory care expenses in Avon.

Paying for Memory Care in Avon
