What to Consider About Memory Care in Gwinnett County

In Gwinnett County, some 10,250 seniors aged 65 or older are estimated to have Alzheimer's disease, dementia or a related impairment. Assisted living facilities (ALCs) and personal care homes (PCHs) may operate memory care units, as long as they follow the guidelines of the Georgia Department of Community Health, which oversees training, facility design and additional regulations. Gwinnett and the surrounding area offer 58 of these facilities.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in

  • The 105.8 cost of living ranking in Gwinnett County is about the same as the national average of 100. Healthcare ranks nearly 10 percent less than the U.S. median, so families who are looking for a memory care unit should consider Gwinnett County, especially if a family member is on a retirement pension, Social Security or another type of fixed income.
  • Air quality in the county is good to poor, depending on the day and the prevailing winds. Gwinnett County received a grade of B for particle pollution and an F for ozone days. Seniors with lung disease or cardio-vascular impairments may find that residency in Gwinnett could be bad for their health.
  • The national average for yearly rainfall is 39 inches, and Gwinnett County exceeds that by 14 inches. There are 213 sunny days, which is higher than the national average of 205. High temperatures of 88 and average lows of 31 are mainly responsible for the county's Comfort Index rating of 67 from Sperling. Gwinnett County sees almost no snow with one inch per year normally.
  • Georgia is among the most tax-friendly states in the U.S. for seniors. For people 65 and above, Social Security and retirement payments are exempt, as is a healthy $65,000 off the top of most income. Property taxes have extra deductions for seniors, and the state sales tax varies between four and eight percent. This can result in extra money to spend on healthcare.
