What to Consider About Memory Care in Collin County

Collin County comprises the northeast portion of the sprawling Dallas-Ft. Worth metroplex, one of the largest metropolitan areas in Texas. Texas is home to over 380,000 residents diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease or dementia. Out of Collin County's 914,000 residents, 10.1 percent are seniors aged 65 and older and 12 percent need memory care. Collin County is home to over 300 memory care facilities that are charged with providing services to people with memory impairments.

Some of the assisted living communities in Collin County have dedicated memory care wings, separate from the main campus and under different state regulations. Alzheimer's and dementia care facilities are considered Type B nursing care and provide overnight supervision and emergency assistance from certified staff. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in

  • Collin County's weather is characterized by long, hot summers, with highs regularly reaching into the mid-90s. Winters are mild, with rare snow and average lows in the mid-30s. Seniors who have health conditions alleviated by warm, dry air may find relief here. 
  • Texas does not have a state income tax; a perk that covers income derived from Social Security and retirement benefits. Families who are budgeting for a loved one's memory care may benefit from these extra funds.
  • The cost of living in Collin County is about 20 percent higher than the U.S. average, with housing costs at 75 percent higher than the national average. This could impact operating costs for certain memory care facilities, so families may need to consider which area they select for their loved one's care.  
  • Collin County is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as Medical City Plano Brain & Spine Hospital and UT-Southwestern Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
