What to Consider About Memory Care in Canyon County

In Canyon County, which is served by the Greater Idaho Chapter of the Alzheimer's Association, the 65-and-over community makes up almost 14 percent of the population of  217,000. Alzheimer's and dementia affects less than 9 percent of the region's seniors on Medicare compared to the national average of 11.3 percent.

There are five memory care facilities in Canyon County, with three in the city of Caldwell and the other two in Middleton and Nampa. In Canyon County, as in the rest of the state, memory care services are generally offered in assisted living facilities that specialize in providing dementia care. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in

  • In Idaho, seniors do not pay state income tax on Social Security income. While other types of income are taxable, taxpayers aged 65 and over qualify for a large deduction on public pension income. This may leave more money for memory care expenses in Canyon County. 
  • The American Lung Association ranked the Canyon County region 62 out of 228 metropolitan areas for high ozone days, indicating relatively low ozone pollution levels. The region's air quality may be beneficial for seniors with cardiovascular disease or respiratory illnesses.
  • In spite of Canyon County's hot summers and cold winters, the county ranks 72 out of 100 on Sperling's Comfort Index, versus the nationwide score of 54. This indicates a relatively comfortable year-round climate. July highs are in the 90s, and January lows are near 20 degrees. Many memory care facilities here keep residents comfortable by providing individual climate control in bedrooms.
  • The overall cost of living in Canyon County is a little lower than state and national averages, which may make the region a good option for families with restrictive memory care budgets. Healthcare expenses are on par with the state average and about 6 percent lower than the national average.
