READ MORESugar Land is a fast-growing city with over 110,000 residents, 16% of whom are seniors. The lack of state income taxes, along with warm weather year-round and low crime rates, make the region a desirable retirement location, and amenities, such as world-class hospitals and the local senior center, support seniors’ quality of life.
Seniors who need help with daily living activities, such as meal preparation, housekeeping and personal care, may be good candidates for assisted living. These facilities provide the convenience of individualized care services in an apartment-like setting that supports seniors’ independence and privacy. Along with housing, assisted living communities serve daily meals and have organized social and recreational programs. The Genworth 2021 Cost of Care Survey shows facilities in Sugar Land charge $4,245 per month for services, which is a couple of hundred dollars higher than the Texas average but competitive compared to the national rate. This can make the city an affordable option, despite its comparatively high cost of living.
This guide provides more information on assisted living rates in Sugar Land, along with financial assistance options, public benefits and entitlements that may help older adults afford care. It also highlights top resources for Sugar Land seniors.
