Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Austell

  • The air in Austell is medium quality. It scored a "D" for ozone pollution, but it received a "B" for particle pollution from the American Lung Association. While it is not entirely unacceptable, the air quality can cause problems for anybody with asthma, lung cancer or C/V disease. This should be a consideration when selecting a memory care unit for a loved one.
  • State tax laws are very friendly to people aged 65 and above whose Social Security payments, retirement pensions and the first $65,000 of income earned annually after retirement are exempt from taxes. Property tax exemptions are also available to seniors, and the low sales tax of 4 percent might enable those on a fixed income to spend more on healthcare.

Healthcare is nearly 10 points less than U.S. figures and five points lower than the state. The savings on healthcare could enable families to afford care that was out-of-reach previously.
