What is the difference between independent living, assisted living, and memory care?
Independent living is for active, self-sufficient seniors who want community and amenities without home maintenance, with no hands-on medical care. Assisted living adds help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, medication reminders, and mobility, with staff onsite around the clock. Memory care is a specialized, secured environment for people with Alzheimer's, dementia, or other cognitive impairments, with specially trained staff. If you're not sure which level fits, a consultation with one of our advisors is the fastest way to sort it out.
How much does assisted living cost?
In 2026, assisted living typically costs $4,500 to $7,000 per month for the base rate, with a national median near $5,900 per month. Memory care usually runs about $1,000 to $1,500 more than assisted living in the same community. Costs vary by region, and most communities charge a level-of-care fee on top, typically $500 to $2,500 per month, based on how much hands-on help the resident needs. You can also use our free Senior Care Cost Calculator, which is calibrated to your zip code.
How do I figure out what level of care my loved one needs?
Our free Care Level Assessment is a 10-question quiz built by senior-living advisors. It returns a care-level recommendation, a monthly budget for your zip code, and matching communities in your area. You can also talk it through with one of our advisors.
