The Cost of Assisted Living in Surrounding Areas

Geographic location has a major influence on the price of senior care, but the type of care chosen is also a key factor. In Conroe, the average monthly rate for assisted living is almost three times the cost of adult day health services ($1,300). Skilled, 24-hour care in a nursing home averages $5,095 per month, which is over $1,200 more expensive than assisted living. For $3,909 and $4,099, respectively, seniors can receive care services at home from a homemaker or home health aide. While these rates seem fairly comparable with the cost of assisted living, seniors who choose in-home care are still responsible for expenses, such as utilities, groceries, property taxes and upkeep. Housing and food-related expenses are usually included in assisted living fees under room and board.
