What to Consider About Memory Care in Hazel Crest

In the Hazel Crest area alone, there are 11 memory care facilities designed to accommodate the village's 17 percent senior population.

Seniors and family members should be aware of the additional resources throughout Illinois for those with Alzheimer's or other dementias. Residents of Hazel Crest are less than 30 miles from two of the state's regional Alzheimer's disease assistance centers (or ADA centers).

  • Those searching for memory care in Illinois, including in Hazel Crest, might benefit from knowing that the state is considered retirement tax-friendly. This means that Illinois does not tax Social Security retirement benefits or other forms of retirement income, a factor that might make affording memory care in Hazel Crest easier.
