Assisted Living in Aurora, Colorado

Aurora is just minutes outside of Colorado’s state capital, Denver, giving residents ready access to picturesque downtown Denver, an international airport and everything that a large city has to offer. Aurora itself is the third-largest city in Colorado and boasts its own thriving arts and culture scene, such as the Aurora Symphony Orchestra, art exhibits and many local farm-to-table restaurants. Aurora is located at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, a beautiful area for hiking and nature-watching in the summer and skiing in the winter. The city has a cost of living slightly higher than the national average, although Colorado does offer a retirement income tax break, an added bonus for the many seniors in Aurora, about 11% of the city’s population of 379,000.

Assisted living is best for seniors who can no longer live at home safely, but don’t need continuous medical care. Caregivers at assisted living facilities help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing and light housekeeping. Assisted living facilities in Aurora cost $5,500 per month, more than the state and national averages. 

In this guide you will learn more about assisted living costs, and how to get financial assistance to pay for an assisted living facility. Also included is a list of helpful resources relevant to seniors in Greeley, and the legal requirements that assisted living facilities must follow.
