Studio City is a quaint residential neighborhood in Los Angeles, California, where there are nearly 4 million residents. More than 10 percent of the city's population is aged 65 years or older and many have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease or another form of dementia. In fact, throughout Los Angeles County an estimated 147,000 seniors have been diagnosed with dementia.
There is one memory care facility in Studio City that provides residential care to seniors with dementia and another 23 located in nearby areas such as West Hills, Westwood and Burbank. Many of these facilities offer both memory care services and basic assisted living services to seniors, as provisions for both levels of care are similar in California.
