These 2 providers send caregivers to homes in and around Huntsville, and work with Patriot Angels so veteran families can use VA benefits for the hours.
What In-Home Care Costs in Huntsville
No Huntsville-only figure is published, so the benchmark is the Texas median of $5,720 a month for 44 hours a week, about $30 an hour (CareScout 2025). Most Huntsville families start with fewer hours, which keeps the bill well under the full-time figure. VA also checks income and assets; our guide to VA’s income and net worth limits shows how in-home care costs lower countable income.
