Two kinds of assisted living in Anderson
Both are licensed by South 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. South Carolina words these licenses as “Community Residential Care Facility” (9), “Community Residential Care Facility (Alzheimer's unit)” (4).

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.
