As a result, there are approximately 10,000 seniors who live in Jackson County, Georgia, some of whom have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease or some other form of dementia.

    Located in a state where there are 140,000 people with cognitive impairments, Jackson County has three memory care facilities — recognized as specialized units within an assisted living facility — to help accommodate these numbers.

    • Jackson County is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as the Northridge Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
    • Seniors who live in Jackson County and the state of Georgia may enjoy more money left at the end of the year thanks to the lack of state income tax on Social Security Income benefits (SSI). Seniors can also take advantage of a $65,000 deduction per person on retirement income, and there is no estate or inheritance tax.
    • Jackson County residents, including seniors in memory care, can feel safe due to the overall crime rate that is 34 percent lower than the national average. In Jefferson, the main city in Jackson County, people have a one in 56 chance of becoming a victim of any type of crime.
    • The climate in Jackson County varies from hot and humid summers with the high temperatures hovering around 90 to short and cold winters with average temperatures around freezing. Like most southeastern cities, the climate in July and August can be oppressive, so families may want to inquire about the measures to prevent seniors in memory care from wandering outside on extremely hot days.
