Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in St. Charles

 

  • The lower overall cost of living makes Saint Charles an affordable place to live. It's 7.9% below the U.S. average cost of living. However, Saint Charles has a higher cost of living than the Missouri average, so it's not the most affordable city in the state.
  • Saint Charles residents can feel secure with the relatively low crime rates. The city's violent crime ranks 16.3 on a 100-point scale, which is below the U.S. average ranking of 22.7. While property crime is a little higher at 37.7, residents of memory care facilities have additional protection with secured entrances and 24/7 staffing to keep them safe.
  • Seniors in Saint Charles can receive medical care without leaving town at SSM Health St. Joseph Hospital - St. Charles. It's a Joint Commission certified Primary Stroke Center in addition to having a 24/7 emergency room and many other medical specialties.
  • The number of physicians per capita is lower than average in Saint Charles. It has 98 physicians per 100,000 people, while the U.S. average is 210. However, its proximity to St. Louis and other suburbs provides easy access to additional medical providers and specialties if needed. 
  • Residents of Saint Charles experience four distinct seasons, making it ideal for seniors who like a mix of weather. Memory care facilities often have secured outdoor spaces, such as interior courtyards, where residents can enjoy the changing seasons along with an average of 202 sunny days a year.
