Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Livermore

 

  • California has some of the highest state income tax rates in the nation, with residents paying between 1% and 12.3% of their income to the state. The state taxes most forms of retirement income, with the exception of Social Security benefits, but it offers a senior income tax exemption to support seniors’ financial stability.

 

  • Over the course of the year, temperatures in Livermore range from lows of 39 degrees Fahrenheit in the winter to highs of 88 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer, providing ample opportunities to enjoy outdoor recreational therapies, such as gardening and bird-watching. The city rarely has noticeable humidity, and aside from an occasional dusting in December, snowfall is unusual.

 

  • Livermore doesn’t have its own hospital, but Stanford Health Care Tri-Valley sits just 7 miles away in Pleasanton. This hospital provides a full range of services, including orthopedic care, cardiovascular support and urgent care, and it treats degenerative neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer’s and frontotemporal dementia.

 

  • Livermore’s overall cost of living is high, even by California’s standards. In general, residents pay more for housing, groceries, utilities and transportation, resulting in a cost of living score that exceeds the state norm by 46 percentage points and the national average by 96 points on a 100-point index based on national living costs. Fortunately, because Livermore sits within Alameda County, some memory care facilities may accept the state’s Assisted Living Waiver.

 

  • Crime occurs relatively infrequently in Livermore, making the city an attractive retirement option for vulnerable seniors who need memory support. On a 100-point crime index that gives lower scores to cities with less crime, the city rates lower than the nation for both violent and property crime, with respective scores of 14.5 and 33.4.
