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 adjusted by wages in the surrounding metro area, so nearby cities in the same metro share it. It is an estimate to plan against, not a quote; ask each provider for its own number in writing. Our methodology →
