What to Consider About Memory Care in Garland

The Texas Department of Health and Human Services licenses all memory care communities in Garland as Type B facilities. This designation indicates facilities have enough staff members to provide nighttime monitoring and evacuation assistance in an emergency. To ensure a consistent standard of care, the department sets minimum rules for care planning, building security and dementia-specific programming.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Garland

  • Since Texas doesn’t have an income tax, Garland seniors only pay federal income taxes on their retirement income, letting them put more money toward local memory care expenses. Texas makes up for lost revenue with a comparatively high sales tax rate, but it exempts groceries and prescription and over-the-counter medications.
  • Garland’s cost of living aligns with the national norm, although it's roughly 6% above Texas’ average. However, this mainly results from comparatively high transportation expenses. Costs for housing, health care, groceries and utilities align with or fall below national rates, driving competitive memory care costs. To further support financial favorability, Texas funds the STAR+PLUS program to help qualified individuals cover memory care expenses.
  • Garland scores 53 points on the AARP Livability Index, which measures a region’s favorability for seniors. The city's score accounts for its high patient satisfaction rating, with 70.3% of hospital patients reporting high-quality care and access to area amenities, such as grocery stores and parks. This satisfaction rating may provide convenience for memory care residents and out-of-town visitors.
  • Although Garland doesn’t have a hospital, it sits within 6 miles of Methodist Richardson Medical Center. This hospital specializes in diabetes services, cancer care and cardiology, and its health care providers give referrals to local neurologists who diagnose and treat memory-related disorders.
  • On a 100-point total crime index, Garland scores 12 points, indicating it has less crime than 12% of U.S. communities. The city reports about 28 infractions per 1,000 people every year, including roughly 26 property-related crimes and two violent offenses. Fortunately, memory care facilities promote resident safety through monitored entry points, alarm systems and surveillance cameras, providing peace of mind to families.
