Assisted Living in Olathe, Kansas

Part of Kansas City’s metropolitan area, Olathe is a medium-sized city of 140,000 that’s home to more than 14,000 seniors aged 65 and older. Milder winters and an absence of Social Security and inheritance taxes, in combination with the amenities that nearby Kansas City offers, make Olathe a feasible retirement option. The area offers many opportunities for recreation and relaxation, from wine-tasting to picnicking at local parks or antique-hunting at Sentimental Journey Marketplace. Seniors can also find socialization and fun at the local senior center or by joining Johnson County Parks and Recreation’s 50 Plus Program, which features a variety of leisure and recreational activities.  

Assisted living facilities welcome seniors who want to stay socially engaged and independent but who need assistance with daily tasks, including personal care such as bathing and grooming. The Genworth 2021 Cost of Care Survey reports that the average price of assisted living in Olathe, which is $4,585 per month, is roughly on par with the national median rate and with payments for care in cities across Kansas.
