What Does Assisted Living Actually Cost? The Real Breakdown

The national median for assisted living is approximately $4,500 per month in 2024. But that base rate rarely reflects what families actually pay. Care level add-ons can add $1,000 to $3,000 per month based on how much assistance your loved one needs. Community fees range from $1,000 to $5,000 upfront. And services like physical therapy, medications, and personal care items are almost never included.
