Coeur d'Alene Assisted Living Costs and VA Benefits
No separate Coeur d'Alene figure is published, so the best benchmark is the Idaho median of $5,175 a month (CareScout 2025), $1,025 under the U.S. median of $6,200. VA also checks income and assets; our guide to Aid & Attendance income and net worth limits shows how assisted living costs lower countable income. In Coeur d'Alene, as elsewhere, the care level written into the plan moves the price more than the apartment does.

| U.S. assisted living median | $6,200 | $2,355 |
