What to Consider About Memory Care in Rockwall County

Rockwall County is considered part of the bustling Dallas-Ft. Worth metroplex, one of the most populous areas in Texas. This is a state where over 380,000 residents have been diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease. Rockwall County itself estimates that 11 percent of its population of 90,000 has a memory condition such as dementia, most of whom are seniors aged 65 and older —the population especially vulnerable to Alzheimer's. To accommodate those who will need treatment, Rockwall County has 30 memory care facilities. 

The State of Texas's Department of Health and Human Services regulates and licenses memory care facilitiesRequirements for memory care facilities stipulate specialized staff training and certification.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in

Winters are generally mild, with little snow; those with respiratory or other conditions alleviated by milder weather may find relief. 
  • Texas does not have a state income tax, which also exempts income from Social Security benefits and retirement accounts. The extra money may be helpful for families on a budget. 
  • Cost of living in Rockwall County is about 25 percent higher than the U.S. average, mainly due to higher housing costs. This may increase the operating costs for memory care facilities, something families on a budget may need to consider.
