What to Consider About Memory Care in Anderson

With a population that is nearly 20 percent seniors over the age of 65, Anderson has a cost of living lower than the national average, which makes it an affordable location for seniors to call home. The state of South Carolina has approximately 89,000 seniors who have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia, and Anderson has 21 memory care facilities in the area to help accommodate them.

In Anderson and the state of South Carolina, memory care facilities are referred to as Alzheimer’s Special Care Units (SCU), and they provide assistance with daily living care and offer segregated and secure programs for individuals who have a diagnosis of probable Alzheimer’s or other dementia.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Anderson

  • Anderson is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as the AnMed Health Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
  • Taxes in Anderson and the state of South Carolina favor senior citizens due to the lack of taxes on Social Security benefits. Seniors may also deduct $15,000 of income from any sources at 65 or older. This allows seniors to hold onto more of their income, which is helpful when paying for memory care.
  • Anderson has hot and humid summers with July highs around 90 degrees, which may make it difficult for seniors with breathing disorders to enjoy the outdoors in the warmer months. Average January lows are around 31 degrees, and the city only gets around an inch of snow per year.
  • Crime in Anderson is ranked on a scale from one (low) to 100 (high). Violent crime is ranked 76.8, which is much higher than the national average of 31.1. Property crime is ranked 83.5, which is also higher than the national average of 38.1. Seniors may not feel safe when traveling to and from medical appointments or when trying to enjoy the outdoors.
