What Assisted Living Costs in Florence
No separate Florence figure is published, so the best benchmark is the Alabama median of $4,425 a month (CareScout 2025), $1,775 under the U.S. median of $6,200. If the family home is a concern, read how the family home affects the net worth limit. In Florence, as elsewhere, the care level written into the plan moves the price more than the apartment does.
