Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Ogden

  • Ogden has a mild climate with comfortable summers. The city experiences 223 sunny days compared to the U.S. average of 205 and just 21 inches of rain annually compared to 38 inches nationally. Snowfall is a little more common at 41 inches in Ogden as opposed to 28 inches across the U.S. However, winter can still be relatively comfortable in the region as low temperatures in January are only 2.3 degrees below the national average.
  • The cost of living in Ogden is 99.5 on a 100-point index, where the national average is 100. While this indicates prices of groceries, health care and housing are comparable to cities in most other states, Ogden is 14.7 points less expensive than the average for Utah, making it a more affordable place to live within the state.
  • Property crime is prevalent in Ogden, measuring 62.3 on an index against the U.S. average of 35.4. However, memory care facilities usually have 24/7 security and other measures to prevent thefts and intrusions. Violent crimes rank at 27.8, compared to the national average of 22.7, making the city relatively safe.
  • Ogden’s air quality is 73/100 — much higher than the national average of 58. While air quality isn’t the only factor that can affect seniors with lung conditions such as asthma or COPD, it may help improve comfort.
  • Tax rates are comparable to the U.S. average in the city. Ogden’s sales tax is 0.2% lower than the national 7.3%, but its income tax rate is 0.4% higher. Seniors moving from other states may find they can stretch their budgets further thanks to these reasonable rates.
  • Health care may be less accessible in Ogden, as the city only has 133 physicians per 100,000 people compared to the U.S. average of 210. There are 4,937 hospital beds in Utah to cover the population of 3,380,800, equating to 1.46 beds per 1,000 people, which is lower than the national average of 2.9 recorded by the WHO. However, some memory care facilities may offer skilled nursing and other medical services to ease this burden.
