What to Consider About Memory Care in Lake County

Lake County is located near Orlando, in the central part of Florida. It has a population of 346,017, of which 26.5 percent, or 91,700, are 65 years of age or older, and many of them are likely to be living with Alzheimer's disease. In the state, the estimated number of dementia patients is expected to rise from 540,000 to 720,000 by 2025.

Not every assisted living facility can watch over these patients. Florida law dictates that care for senior citizens who have cognitive impairments requires an Extended Congregate Care (ECC) license. In Lake County, 13 of these ECC facilities are scattered across the neighboring communities.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in

  • Florida is one of the few states in the U.S. that does not have an income tax. This favors seniors and families on a fixed income who can take money that would have been spent on taxes and use it for healthcare costs in an ECC facility.
  • Cost of living estimates are based on a national average of 100, and Lake County's cost of living is 93.8. Housing is a bit higher than the national average, but healthcare is a bit lower as well. The money saved by the lower healthcare expenses can be put toward housing or another bill.
  • Crime is rated on a scale with one being the least amount and 100 representing the highest. For violent crime, the U.S. average is 31.1, while Lake County's ranking is 10 points higher at 41.5. Property crime in the U.S. averages 38.1, as compared to 42 in Lake County. Seniors can benefit from the additional security offered by an assisted living facility.
  • Lake County receives an average of 53 inches of rainfall yearly, and the U.S. average is 39 inches. Lake County has 234 sunny days as opposed to 205 nationally. Summer highs climb to 92 degrees and slide back down to 45 in January. Sperling's ranks Lake County 77 out of 100 on its Comfort Index.
