What does assisted living cost?
Costs vary widely by region, level of care, and the community itself. Below is a high-level overview to help families think through the essentials before reaching out to a partner.
What's typically included
Most assisted living communities include private accommodations, meals, housekeeping, social programming, and 24-hour staff support. Some include light medical assistance and medication management.
What drives the price
Location is usually the largest factor. Room size and type, level of care needed, and amenities (memory care, fitness, transportation) also affect monthly cost.
Ways families pay
Private savings, long-term care insurance, veterans benefits (such as Aid & Attendance), and in some cases home equity. A trusted advisor can help you understand options.
