READ MOREIn South Carolina, assisted living facilities are referred to as Community Residential Care Facilities. The Bureau of Health Facility Licensing regulates all types of health care facilities in South Carolina, including those specializing in assisted living. It inspects and licenses these facilities while enforcing standards to ensure resident safety.
According to Genworth’s 2021 Cost of Care Survey, the average cost of assisted living in Spartanburg is $3,600 per month. However, the final price at each facility varies based on housing options, amenities and services.
Spartanburg’s average cost of $3,600 is nearly identical to the state average of $3,612, putting it about midrange compared to other cities. It’s higher than Columbia’s average of $3,270 and Florence’s $3,456. However, it’s lower than Myrtle Beach’s average of $4,070 by more than $400 per month and Hilton Head Island’s average of $4,500 by $900 per month, a rate that matches the U.S. median.

Low-income seniors who are facing nursing home placement may have other options, thanks to the Community Long Term Care waiver. This South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services program is Medicaid-affiliated and offers eligible seniors “freedom of choice,” so they can find the long-term care options best suited to their personal preferences and medical needs whether that’s in-home assistance or a spot in an assisted living facility.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in South Carolina page.
While many families use their own funds or personal assets to pay for assisted living, there are plenty of additional options to cover these costs. Some additional ways to finance assisted living costs include:
