Two kinds of assisted living in Burlington
Both are licensed by North Carolina 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.

Small residential homes often cost less than larger communities, though care needs, room type and services move the price more than the building does.

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