When trying to decide how to pay for assisted living, one of the first questions that comes up is "How much does it cost?" With the impact of inflation, it's more important than ever to have up-to-date information when making a financial plan for senior living. To help shed light on real senior living prices, Caring.com has compiled proprietary cost data from its network of more than 75,000 senior living providers to provide insight into the average cost of assisted living in Kenosha and 61 other cities in Wisconsin.
Qualifying seniors can receive additional Social Security income to pay for assisted living through Wisconsin's Exceptional Expense Supplement for Members of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. Additionally, Medicaid's Medical Assistance Personal Care program is available to seniors residing in ALFs with less than 20 residents.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Wisconsin page.
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:
