Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Wayzata

  • In terms of overall comfort, Wayzata receives a score of 40 out of 100, with 100 being the best. Winters are cold, with temperatures dropping below six degrees and 51 inches of snow fall is expected each year. Families may want to check to see that their chosen SCU has proper measures in place to prevent seniors from these harsh weather conditions.
  • Wayzata's overall cost of living exceeds the U.S. national average by an index of 58.5. The largest contributing factor is the cost of housing, which is nearly three times greater than the national average. This may be something for families of loved ones with dementia to keep in mind when budgeting for a memory care facility.
  • According to the American Lung Association, the air in Hennepin County is clean and safe to breath. The area receives a passing grade, scoring an A for ozone pollution and a B for 24-hour particle pollution. This means that seniors with respiratory conditions are unlikely to see their condition worsen.
  • Crime rates in Wayzata exceed both state-wide and national averages. Violent crime receives a score of 32.1 and property crime scores a 51.8 out of a possible 100, with 100 being high crime. The national averages are 31.1 and 38.1 in the same categories, respectively. While most facilities are outfitted with surveillance equipment and security systems, it's worthwhile to ask individual facilities what procedures and policies they have in place to ensure the safety of their residents.
