What to Consider About Memory Care in Cobb County
Cobb County's population is 755,754, of which 89,000 are aged 65 or older. Some of these seniors are living with Alzheimer's disease or some other form of dementia and may benefit from treatment in a dedicated assisted living facility called a memory care unit. The Georgia Department of Community Health is in charge of licensing, regulating and overseeing the operation of memory care facilities throughout the state. About 22 memory care facilities are located in Cobb County, mostly in Marietta and the Atlanta area.
- State tax laws are meant to help people aged 65 and above by exempting their Social Security payments, retirement pensions and the first $65,000 of yearly earned income after retirement from taxes. Seniors can also get property tax exemptions, and the reasonable 4 percent sales tax may help families who are on a fixed income to invest more in healthcare.
- Cobb County's cost of living at 117 is a bit higher than the U.S. and state average of 100. Housing is nearly 30 points greater than both the national average and Georgia's norm. 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 better afford healthcare.
- Sperling's Comfort Index for Cobb County is 64 out of 100, which is 10 points higher than the national norm of 54. Wintertime lows average 31 degrees, and summertime temperatures typically remain below 89 with 217 sunny days every year. Annual rainfall is 52 inches, as opposed to 39 for the country. Cobb County's pleasant weather can bring some relief to painful joints and respiratory conditions for older patients.
- The air in Cobb County scored a "D" for ozone pollution and a "B" for particle pollution. The air quality can cause problems for seniors who have respiratory diseases. This may be a factor to consider when choosing a memory care unit.
