How much does assisted living cost in Charlotte, NC?

In Charlotte, the average monthly cost of assisted living is $4,840, based on A Place for Mom’s proprietary data.[01] This amount represents the starting base rate for housing, meals, and basic services. Additional expenses — such as personal care, specialized support, or enhanced amenities — are usually billed separately. Overall costs can vary depending on the community’s location, the size and design of the apartment, and the level of care your loved one requires.

The average monthly cost of assisted living in Charlotte is slightly higher than both the national average of $4,780 and North Carolina’s statewide average of $4,436 per month.[01] This difference is likely due to Charlotte’s cost of living, which is approximately 12% above the national average, according to the Economic Research Institute.[02]

In Charlotte, the average starting cost of assisted living is generally higher than independent living ($3,595 per month) and lower than memory care ($5,297 per month). As your loved one’s care needs evolve, it’s natural for overall costs to rise, reflecting the additional personalized support and specialized services provided at higher levels of care.

How to pay for assisted living in Charlotte

When it comes to paying for assisted living in Charlotte, seniors and their families have a variety of options to choose from. In some circumstances, families can source from their private and public funds, including NC Medicaid, North Carolina’s Medicaid program, to pay for assisted living in Charlotte.

Private pay options

Families often use a combination of personal income and assets to help pay assisted living expenses. Common sources include:

In some cases, family members may choose to contribute financially toward monthly assisted living expenses to help ensure their loved one receives the care, comfort, and support they deserve.

VA benefits

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) provides several programs that can help eligible veterans and their surviving spouses pay for assisted living. The three most commonly used VA benefits are:

  • Veterans Pension
  • Aid and Attendance benefits
  • Disability Compensation

Surviving spouses may also be eligible for the Survivors Pension or Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC) programs, either of which can help cover assisted living expenses.

Because the VA application process can be complex and time-consuming, even minor errors or missing documents may cause delays or denials. It’s best to work with a VA-accredited benefits counselor, who can help you understand eligibility requirements and ensure all documentation is properly submitted.

Resources for veterans in Charlotte

There are nearly 26,000 veterans living in Charlotte, many of whom are 65 or older.[03] To support them, and their families, several area organizations provide benefits support and guidance. They include:

Medicaid

Medicaid is a federal and state program that helps individuals and families who have limited incomes afford health care and long-term care services. NC Medicaid is North Carolina’s Medicaid program, which operates the Long-Term Services and Supports (LTSS) Care Management Program. North Carolina’s LTSS program can cover a variety of services and supports for eligible North Carolinians, but it won’t cover room and board costs in assisted living facilities. However, some supports may be covered through the home- and community-based service programs like Personal Care Services (PCS). For people who need nonmedical care services, the PCS program will cover an approved number of hours of personal care services in various settings outside of a nursing home.[04] Note that financial and medical eligibility requirements apply.

Medicaid resources in Charlotte, NC

North Carolina residents can apply for NC Medicaid in a variety of ways:

For more detailed information or assistance applying for Medicaid, consider these local resources:

Medicare

Medicare is a federal health insurance program that provides coverage for adults ages 65 and older, as well as for younger individuals with specific disabilities or medical conditions such as end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or ALS.[05] While Medicare doesn’t cover the cost of assisted living or other long-term care, it can help reduce medical expenses for residents — including prescription medications, durable medical equipment, and other eligible health care services received while living in an assisted living community.
