Cost of Assisted Living Comparison Chart

The type of care required is the most significant factor that influences the cost of senior care in Houston and throughout the country. In Houston, the cost of nursing home care is more than $1,000 higher than the cost of assisted living. When compared with home care, the cost of assisted living is only slightly less. However, it’s important to consider other costs that are associated with continuing to live in the home when budgeting for home care, such as rent, utilities, groceries and home maintenance, which make home care a far more expensive option.
