Both are licensed by Wisconsin 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. Wisconsin words these licenses as “Community Based Residential Facility” (92), “Residential Care Apartment Complex” (13).
Every assisted living community Wisconsin licenses in Milwaukee, from state records. Being listed is not a rating: Lilisity scores only communities with verified interviews (the Top Communities). Communities with verified reviews are listed first, then by size.

The median cost of assisted living in Wisconsin is $6,540 a month ($78,480 a year), above 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.

Wisconsin publishes licensing records, and in most cases inspection or complaint reports, for every community on this page. Look up any community on the state’s site: dhs.wisconsin.gov. Ask the community for its most recent inspection report too; they have to keep it.
Wisconsin licenses 105 assisted living communities in Milwaukee as of September 2026: 41 larger communities and 64 small residential homes of 16 or fewer residents, with about 2,558 licensed spots in all.
The median cost of assisted living in Wisconsin is $6,540 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, or ask a Lilisity advisor for current prices.
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.
Wisconsin publishes its licensing records at dhs.wisconsin.gov. You can also ask any community for its most recent state inspection report.
One call covers which communities have openings, what they cost and which fit your parent's needs and budget.
