Why is this number different on other websites? Many directories quote a community's "starting at" rent, before care fees. This figure is the state survey median. It is an estimate to plan against, not a quote; ask each provider for its own number in writing. Our methodology →

What home care really costs by the hour

Hourly math uses the survey standard of 44 hrs/week when a sourced in-home monthly median is published for Hummels Wharf. We do not invent an hourly rate before that figure exists.

Ways families typically pay

  • Private pay (savings, income, home equity)
  • Long-term care insurance

The order is the date we last verified each record, newest first. Nobody pays to appear, and nobody pays to move up. If a listing says "Sponsored," a provider paid for that placement and the label says so.
