No reliable public benchmark

We haven't found a reliable public survey of independent living prices for South Florida, so we won't quote one. Pricing depends on apartment size, what's included, and whether there's an entrance fee.

How to compare

Add up what Mom spends now on housing, utilities, food, maintenance, insurance, transportation, and housekeeping, and compare it with a community's all-in monthly fee. Our cost calculator helps. CCRC entrance-fee contracts are regulated by Florida's OIR [1].
