What to Consider About Memory Care in Perry
The small city of Perry is part of the Warner Robins metropolitan area in Houston County, Georgia. The Alzheimer's Association projects that an average of one in 10 seniors in the United States has Alzheimer's disease. However, the rate of the disease among Houston County seniors is higher than average, with nearly 12 percent of seniors on Medicare living with Alzheimer's or dementia. Some of these seniors may reside in Perry, where the senior community makes up almost 13 percent of the 17,000-person population.
The Perry region has five memory care facilities, including one in Perry proper and the other four in the nearby cities of Warner Robins and Centerville. In Georgia, memory care may be provided within memory care units in assisted living communities or personal care homes, or they may be independent, as is the case with Perry's memory care facility.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Perry
- Georgia seniors do not pay state income tax on Social Security benefits, and there is a large deduction for all other types of retirement income for individuals age 64 and over. This may help seniors and families fund memory care services in Perry.
- The air quality in Perry is decent, which may appeal to families whose senior loved one has a cardiovascular or respiratory condition. The American Lung Association gave Houston County a B for short-term particle pollution and a passing score for annual particle pollution.
- Summers in Perry are hot and very humid, and winters are cold and wet. Over the course of a year, temperatures range between 38 degrees and 92 degrees. Families may want to determine what measures are taken to keep residents comfortable during extreme seasonal temperatures.
- Overall, living costs in Perry are about 12 percent below the state and national average, which may bring down the cost of memory care in the region. Health care expenses are relatively high at 6 percent above the national average, which may make it difficult to afford costs associated with chronic conditions like dementia.
