    What to Consider About Memory Care in Longview

    Longview is located in northeast Texas and has a population of almost 82,000 people — more than 14 percent are seniors age 65 and over. About 380,000 Texans currently have Alzheimer's disease, and nearly a quarter of people in hospice in the state have a primary diagnosis of dementia. Local families who are seeking out dementia care for their loved ones will find four memory care facilities in Longview and one more in nearby Kilgore. These facilities are housed within Type B assisted living facilities, which are licensed to provide specialized care and programming for residents with dementia.

    • While the overall cost of living in Longview is about 7 percent below the national median, healthcare costs are about 10 percent higher than the U.S. average and about 15 percent higher than the state average. This may be a consideration for seniors and their caregivers on a tight budget.
    • Texas does not have an income tax, so seniors hold on to the entirety of their Social Security income, public and private pension disbursements and withdrawals from retirement accounts. This makes paying for memory care easier for seniors in Longview. 
    • Longview has a warm year-round climate. August is the hottest month with highs in the 90s and lows in the 70s. The coldest month of the year is January when highs are in the mid-50s and lows are in the 30s. While Longview's hot summers may be a drawback for seniors who enjoy being outdoors, the area's comfortable winters may appeal to seniors who don't like cold weather.
    • Longview's crime rate is higher than 89 percent of the cities in Texas and quite a bit higher than the average crime rate of other U.S. cities of similar size. Families who are transitioning their loved ones to memory care in this city should ensure that the community they choose takes proper precautions to keep residents safe.
