Local rates are estimated to climb to $3,079 in 2024. However, these rates fall well below the national median of $4,459, and Fort Worth remains an affordable city for senior care compared to the average city in Texas, at $3,300.

As different types of senior living often involve different levels of care and programming, the costs may be higher or lower. Independent living allows seniors to maintain a high level of independence and autonomy, so personal care services are minimal. This results in rates that are about $400 less than assisted living. Alternatively, memory care services are much more specialized, so rates are typically a bit higher, at $3,000.
