The Texas Department of Human Services licenses assisted living facilities as Personal Care Facilities. Only facilities with more than four residents require a license. Facilities are categorized as Type A, B, and E. Type A facilities only accept residents who are able to evacuate the premises unassisted and that don't require routine nighttime attendance. Type B facilities take residents who don't qualify for Type A facilities. Type E facilities are similar to Type As but are limited to 16 beds.

According to a recent survey by Genworth Financial, the average monthly cost for a one-bedroom in an assisted living facility in Texas is $2,548 compared to the Texas average of $3,210.
