Assisted Living in Roanoke, Virginia

Roanoke is legendary as one of the nation’s oldest Colonial settlements, and the “Mystery of Roanoke” still captures the imaginations of many today. The community is nestled in Virginia’s Roanoke Valley, an area with plenty of natural beauty and opportunities to explore nature. Mill Mountain Park is one of the most popular destinations for tourists and residents alike thanks to its panoramic valley views. Roanoke is also considered the business and trade hub of southwest Virginia and southern West Virginia. The weather in Roanoke is pleasant year-round with warm, humid summers and snow-dusted winters. Its cost of living, which is about 16 points below the national average, plus the fact that Virginia doesn’t levy a very high tax on retirement income or Social Security may benefit seniors on a limited budget.

Assisted living is a great choice for seniors who are independent but could use some assistance with activities of daily living. Fortunately, seniors in the Roanoke area have access to plenty of assisted living options. These facilities grant residents access to care services, prepared meals, and a bevy of scheduled activities. According to the Genworth 2021 Cost of Care Survey, seniors in Roanoke pay $5,925 per month for assisted living care — more than both the state and national averages.

This guide provides additional information about local care costs and resources to help seniors navigate their care options.
