Both are licensed by Alabama as assisted living. Larger communities suit people who want social life and on-site services; small homes suit people who do better with quiet, familiar routines, including many people with dementia. Alabama words these licenses as “Assisted Living Facility (Regular)” (8), “Specialty Care Assisted Living Facility (Regular)” (6), “Specialty Care Assisted Living Facility (Probational)” (1).

The median cost of assisted living in Alabama is $4,425 a month ($53,100 a year), below the national median of $6,200. That’s CareScout’s 2025 survey, collected July to November 2025. Small residential homes often cost less than larger communities, though care needs, room type and services move the price more than the building does.
Medicare does not pay for assisted living. People pay from savings and income, long-term care insurance, or VA Aid and Attendance (up to $29,093 a year for a veteran in 2026), and some qualify for Medicaid help with care costs at communities that accept it. Who actually pays for long-term care.

Medicaid doesn't pay rent or meals in assisted living.
