Two kinds of assisted living in Arlington
Both are licensed by Texas 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. Texas words these licenses as “Assisted Living Facility TYPE B” (24), “Assisted Living Facility TYPE A” (7).

How much does assisted living cost in Arlington?
The median cost of assisted living in Texas is $5,666 a month ($67,992 a year), below the national median of $6,200. That’s CareScout’s 2025 survey, collected July to November 2025. 6 Arlington communities publish a starting price on Lilisity, from $2,995 to $4,630 a month. If more care is needed: nursing home costs in Texas, with CareScout medians and the private-pay rates nursing homes publish. 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.

The median cost of assisted living in Texas is $5,666 a month (CareScout 2025), compared with $6,200 nationally. Prices vary with the room, the level of care and the community, so ask each one for its current rate sheet. The table on this page shows each community's published price or a Lilisity estimate where we have one, and our free guide lists the questions to ask about cost.
Medicaid doesn't pay rent or meals in assisted living. Most states offer a Medicaid waiver or program that can pay for care services at participating communities for people who qualify; not every community takes it, so ask each one. Texas's Medicaid agency or your local Area Agency on Aging can tell you what's available.
Texas publishes its licensing records at hhs.texas.gov. You can also ask any community for its most recent state inspection report.
