What to Consider About Memory Care in Carrollton
Safe, family-friendly Carrollton, Texas is a suburb of the busy Dallas-Ft. Worth Metroplex. Texas is a state with 380,000 diagnosed Alzheimer's patients, many of whom live in special memory care facilities with around-the-clock care. With over ten percent of the 136,000 Carrollton residents aged 65 and over, memory care patients and their families have plenty of options. There are three memory care facilities in Carrollton and hundreds in the metroplex to support the city's seniors with dementia and other cognitive impairments.
Texas designates memory care and dementia facilities as Class B facilities. Some assisted living communities may feature a dedicated memory care wing separate from the rest of the community. Licensing, regulation, and inspection of memory care facilities is under the purview of the Texas Department of Health and Senior Services.

Weather in Carrollton is characterized by long, hot summers and mild winters. While seniors with respiratory conditions aggravated by the cold and damp may find relief here, those memory care residents sensitive to high heat may be uncomfortable.
-
Texas does not have a state income tax, including income from retirement accounts and Social Security and Disability benefits. This may help families budgeting for memory care ease some of the financial burden. Texas's higher property taxes and sales taxes typically leave memory care residents unaffected.
- Carrollton's cost of living is higher than the national average, although the high cost of housing is the main cause. This may affect boarding fees for those in memory care. Healthcare and grocery costs fall more in line with the rest of the country.
- The Carrollton area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as Parkland Hospital and UT Dallas Center for Brain Health, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
