The 10 Best Memory Care Facilities in League City, TX for 2024

 

The number of seniors with Alzheimer’s in the United States will nearly double by 2050, from 6.7 million in 2023 to approximately 12.7 million. This projection is especially concerning for places such as League City, where more than 13,000 residents, or about 11.5% of the total population, are aged 65 or over. The area experienced a 37.5% jump in Alzheimer’s-related deaths from 2016 to 2020, according to the CDC, overshadowing its overall mortality rate increase of 24.28% for the same period. This accelerated growth highlights the importance of having access to quality dementia care services.

Fortunately, memory care communities provide specialized services for those with Alzheimer’s and related conditions, including 24-hour supervision, assistance with daily activities and therapeutic programs promoting cognitive health. In addition, residents live in specially designed environments to prevent wandering while ensuring their safety and comfort.

This guide delves into the pros and cons of living in League City and discusses the costs associated with memory care or alternative options. It also provides information on applicable regulations and helpful resources for city residents.

What to Consider About Memory Care in League City

The Texas Department of Health and Human Services oversees memory care communities in League City. The agency’s primary role is to set standards for long-term care facilities, performing routine inspections and monitoring compliance with state and federal regulations. It also handles complaints filed by community residents and their families to ensure they have access to quality care.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in League City

 

  • League City is generally considered a safe place to live. Based on a 100-point index, the area received a score of 29.3 for property crime, which is 6.2 points lower than the national average. In addition, violent crime is even less common, as the city’s score of 11.2 in this category is nearly half the U.S. average of 22.8.

 

  • Seniors in League City enjoy relatively mild winters, averaging 56 degrees Fahrenheit in January, while summer temperatures can reach 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Precipitation is abundant, with about 47 inches per year, and is spread evenly throughout the year. Fortunately, most memory care communities offer a variety of indoor activities to keep seniors busy even during rainy or hot days.

 

  • Thanks to League City’s location in the greater Houston metropolitan area, residents are close to a significant number of hospitals. Near the city center, UTMB Health League City Campus specializes in radiology and emergency care. In addition, just 5 miles to the north, HCA Houston Healthcare Clear Lake provides neurological care, cardiology and oncology services.

 

  • As for health, those in League City have access to 559.62 physicians per 100,000 residents, a ratio that doubles the Texas average of 274.80. The area has relatively low particle pollution, but ozone levels are high. Fortunately, some memory care communities have air purification systems in common rooms to improve residents' well-being.

 

  • The cost of living in League City is just 1.6% above the state average but 4.2% lower than the U.S. average. However, locals spend about 20.8% and 6.5% more than the Texas norm on housing and groceries, respectively. Memory care communities can help simplify expense management, however, as they typically cover most residents’ needs with a single monthly payment.

 

  • Although League City residents still have to pay federal taxes, which can range from 10% to 37%, they benefit from living in one of few states with no income tax. This applies to Social Security and public pensions, as well as private pensions and withdrawals from savings accounts. In addition, property tax rates are generally low, and exemptions may be available.
