Assisted Living in Lubbock, Texas

Lubbock is a larger city in northwest Texas, best known as the birthplace of rock legend Buddy Holly. It’s also the home of Texas Tech University, a college where area seniors may be able to audit courses in a continuing education program. Other attractions in Lubbock include the Moody Planetarium and the museum at Texas Tech University. Summers in Lubbock are long, hot, and dry, which may help alleviate the symptoms of certain health conditions that elderly residents experience. Winters can be cold, with occasional snow. The cost of living in Lubbock is more than 20 points lower than the national average. This lower cost of living, coupled with no state income tax in Texas, may make paying for assisted living easier for seniors on a budget. People 65 and older in Lubbock number about 13% of the city’s population of 311,000 and many may be exploring their options for accommodations in one of the area’s dozens of assisted living communities.

Assisted living provides a combination of social support and light medical support for seniors who feel ready to move out of fully independent living situations, but who don’t require the 24/7 medical observation of a nursing home environment. On average, Lubbock seniors pay $3,950 per month for assisted living care, making this city cheaper than state and national averages.

In the following overview of assisted living topics in Texas, we’ll see how the prices of various Texas cities compare to one another, and we’ll look at some programs from local organizations that work to support Lubbock-area seniors.
