How much does assisted living in Harrisburg cost per month?

Hey everyone, I’m trying to get a sense of how much assisted living in Harrisburg actually costs these days. My aunt has been managing on her own for years, but recently she’s had a few health scares and we're starting to look into assisted living options. She’s super attached to her neighborhood and doesn’t want to move far, so we're definitely looking to keep it local. I’ve seen some places mention everything from a few thousand a month to over six grand, and it's a bit overwhelming. I’d really appreciate any insights or real-world examples if anyone’s been through this.

Yeah, been there not too long ago with my mom. It’s true, the price range is pretty wide — depending on the level of care, some places are around $3,000 per month, while others with more services can go up to $6,000 or more. When we were researching, we focused on finding the Best Assisted Living Facilities in Harrisburg that had good reputations but didn’t feel like giant institutions. One resource that helped us narrow it down was this top rated agency list — it gives a good breakdown of costs and services in the Harrisburg area. In the end, we found a place that struck the right balance between affordability and a home-like atmosphere.

Not currently looking into assisted living for anyone in my family, but I think this kind of info is super useful to have on hand. Harrisburg seems to have a decent selection of senior care options, and talking about it openly really helps break the stigma around planning for later-life care. Good luck to everyone navigating this — it’s not always easy but definitely worth being proactive about.
