The 10 Best Memory Care Facilities in Kingwood, TX for 2023

• Weather along the Gulf Coast, where Kingwood is located, is balmy and warm, although summer highs regularly reach over 90 degrees. Memory care residents with certain health conditions may be uncomfortable outside in the summer. Winters are mild and snow-free, which is comfortable for aging joints.

• The Kingwood area, as part of the greater Houston metro area, is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as Houston Methodist Health Center and Memorial Hermann Sugar Land Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
