When budgeting for senior living costs, it’s important to understand everything that’s included in your monthly rent. Among the key factors that can impact costs are:
Level of care needed:
Costs increase with more attentive lifestyle options. Independent Living is typically the most affordable option with prices increasing for Assisted Living, Memory Care, and Skilled Nursing services.
Services requested:
The amount of services and frequency of them will impact your price. Lifestyle options will come with a set of services included in rent, but you can often pay to add more if desired.
Amenities available:
Communities with an array of amenities to enjoy may have higher rent than local counterparts.
