Independent Living: frequently asked questions
How much does independent living cost?+
Independent living averages about $2,800 per month, ranging from roughly $1,500 to $6,000 depending on location and amenities. Affordable HUD-subsidized senior housing is also available for those who qualify.
What's the difference from assisted living?+
Independent living provides no personal or medical care — it's about lifestyle and convenience. Assisted living adds hands-on help with daily activities.
Can I get care if my needs change?+
Many communities are part of a larger campus (a CCRC) where you can move to assisted living or memory care as needs evolve.
