Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Gilbert

  • Gilbert gets much less rain than many other parts of the country, which is one of the reasons many seniors are attracted to this city. The drier climate does well with many health-related issues with which some seniors contend. However, it does get excessively hot in this corner of the country. 
  • The cost of living in Gilbert is a bit higher than the national average. However, the city makes up for that with lower costs in healthcare and grocery. 
  • Arizona does not tax Social Security income, which means that area seniors have more money to put towards monthly expenses and other costs of living. This also means that seniors living on retirement funds are able to do so more comfortably in Gilbert. 
  • Seniors will be happy to hear that crime in the city is much lower than the national average. Additionally, memory care facilities have their own security measures in place such as 24/7 video monitoring, door alarms, emergency alert systems in residents’ rooms and wearable emergency pendants or bracelets. 
  • Valley Metro offers discounted rides to seniors, so those in the 65+ age range who want to visit friends and family members in memory care can easily do so. Fares range from .50 to $3.00 per ride.
