How much does assisted living cost in Janesville?
The median cost of assisted living in Wisconsin is $6,540 a month ($78,480 a year), above the national median of $6,200.

If more care is needed: nursing home costs in Wisconsin, 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.

Prices vary with the room, the level of care and the community, so ask each one for its current rate sheet.

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. Wisconsin's Medicaid agency or your local Area Agency on Aging can tell you what's available.
