Miami Assisted Living

With over 150 assisted living facilities in the area, Miami seniors will find plenty of options in and around the city. Whether you want to live downtown or in the suburbs, Miami has an assortment of lifestyle choices.

Miami's cost of living, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, is 20% higher than the national average. But a large part of that is because of high housing costs. Fortunately, for seniors, the market for assisted living is competitive, keeping the prices reasonable. Expect to pay a minimum of $2,000 a month for assisted living in the area. Prices will depend on location and amenities. Another benefit to living in Miami is that the state doesn't tax retirement benefits, income or inheritances.
