Assisted Living Communities in Olympia, Washington

With fees averaging $4,805 per month, seniors are likely to find Olympia’s assisted living facilities more affordable. Yakima’s median of $4,975 is the only fee that comes close, but it’s still another $170 per month (or $2,040 when calculated annually). Median fees in other nearby cities are much higher, such as Longview ($5,300), Bremerton ($5,750) and Seattle ($6,750).

Olympia’s median fee of $4,805 is $305 more per month than the U.S. average but is significantly more affordable than Washington’s norm of $6,000. Seniors may find costlier and more affordable facilities in Olympia, as multiple factors determine fees, particularly location and amenities provided. 

While many families use their own funds or personal assets to pay for assisted living, there are plenty of additional options to cover these costs. Some additional ways to finance assisted living costs include:

• Veterans Benefits
• Life Insurance Policy
• Long-Term Care Insurance
• Reverse Mortgage

Adult day health care’s monthly fee of $1,625 is the most affordable in Olympia, which is expected as services are non-medical and don’t include accommodation. Assisted living provides the same services, as well as a comfortable room, three meals per day and social activities, which reflects its median fee of $4,805. In-home care and home health care deliver non-medical and medical services, respectively, for the same average fee of $6,673. This is significantly more than assisted living and doesn’t include the senior’s home maintenance costs
