Cost of Aging in Place vs. a Senior Living Community

At first, aging in place may seem like the more affordable option. While your home mortgage may be lower, you should also consider your other bills and spending. Often, once you bundle all the expenses of aging in place together, the cost of a senior living community in Richardson, Texas may offer equal or greater value.

For example, if you age in place, you’ll have to budget for your mortgage and property taxes, as well as utilities, groceries, housekeeping, entertainment and transportation expenses. You’ll also have to pay for any at-home healthcare and wellness programs. Once you add up all these costs, senior living may be just as affordable as aging in place.

You may even find that senior living communities give you more amenities, resources, and opportunities than living at home for the same price, such as all-included meals and 24/7 health assistance on demand. That doesn’t even include the peace of mind that a senior living community offers. By choosing senior living, you’ll have everything you need right at your doorstep.

Veteran’s Benefits

We’re thrilled to welcome veterans to our community. If you or a loved one is a veteran, you may be eligible to receive financial assistance for assisted living or medical care. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs offers a benefit called Aid and Attendance, which is intended to offset long-term health costs for senior veterans. The benefit typically ranges between $1,200-$2,200/month and can be used to pay for communities like ours.
