Scope is the biggest lever on assisted living pricing. Ask what is included and what is not, then compare the same job across providers. A wider scope at a lower rate can still cost more than a narrow scope at a higher one.

Who sets assisted living prices

Providers set assisted living prices individually, weighing their own costs against how much work they have. When demand is high the number rises; when it is low there is more room to negotiate.

Is Assisted Living cheaper in smaller cities?
Often, but not always. Smaller markets can carry a travel or availability premium that offsets a lower local rate, so it is worth checking a nearby city before assuming the lowest published figure applies to you. It is worth testing that against a couple of quotes in North Dakota.
How many quotes should I get for assisted living?
