Spring, Texas, is a community of around 54,000 residents, out of whom over 10% are older adults aged 65 and over. The area enjoys relatively below-average crime rates, an affordable cost of living and a pleasant climate where two-thirds of the year is sunny. Retirees in Spring have plenty of nearby amenities to explore, including the historic Old Town Spring, the Mercer Botanic Gardens, and the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion
Both home care and home health care providers in the community cost $4,290 per month, according to data from Genworth’s Cost of Care 2020 Survey. Compared with the U.S. respective averages of $4,481 and $4,576, the prices in Spring are more affordable.
Note: Home care cost data wasn’t available for Spring, so data for the closest city, Houston, was used.
At Caring.com, we’ve compiled a comprehensive directory of every home care provider in the Spring area – complete with types of care provided, services offered and reviews from families who’ve actually used the service. In addition to our in-depth provider listings, we’ve compiled a list of resources to help seniors and their families access all the tools they need to age in place safely and gracefully.

Determining Your Loved One’s Need for In-Home Care
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – oftentimes it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
Guidelines for Talking About In-Home Care
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
