What to Consider About Memory Care in Huntington Station

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Huntington Station

  • Huntington Station ranks among the safest communities in New York and the nation as a whole, making it an attractive option for residential memory care services. Overall, the city reports 13 crimes per 1,000 people annually, with property-related offenses making up the majority of infractions. The safest neighborhoods, the Dix Hills region and Half Hollow, report even less crime.
  • New York fully exempts Social Security benefits from state income tax, and seniors can claim a deduction of up to $20,000 to reduce what they owe on other types of retirement income. The state also exempts prescription and over-the-counter medications, groceries and most clothing from sales tax, giving seniors a break on items they purchase most often and helping them put more money toward local memory care costs.
  • Huntington Station's cost of living surpasses the state norm by 21% and the national average by about 47%. High housing costs drive up the cost of residential care, including memory care, but many facilities promote transparency through all-inclusive pricing. Additionally, the state funds the Assisted Living Program, which many seniors rely on for paying for memory care expenses.
  • Huntington Station scores 57 points on the AARP Livability Index, suggesting that it supports seniors’ comfort to a greater degree than a typical U.S. city. It offers high-quality health care services, with nearly 72% of patients reporting satisfaction with their medical care versus 69% nationally. The city doesn’t report a shortage in health care workers, making it a favorable option for seniors managing chronic conditions such as dementia.
  • Memory care residents in Huntington Station have easy access to Huntington Hospital, which sits 3 miles outside the city and specializes in cancer treatment, orthopedics and wound care. The hospital also has a team of primary care providers who oversee medical services and provide referrals to specialists who diagnose and treat dementia.
