What senior care costs in your metro
The CareScout Cost of Care Survey (formerly published by Genworth) is the most widely cited source for senior care pricing, and it publishes state-level medians only — there is no published Cincinnati-metro-specific figure from CareScout or any other primary source, so we cite Ohio's statewide number and say plainly that local pricing likely differs rather than inventing a metro figure.

Source: 2024 CareScout (formerly Genworth) Cost of Care Survey, Ohio statewide figures. Monthly approximations are our own division of the published annual figure by 12, not a figure CareScout itself publishes as monthly.
There is no published memory-care cost median anywhere. CareScout does not survey memory care as its own category, in Ohio or in any other state. Any specific memory-care price you see online is an estimate or an extrapolation, not a surveyed figure -- get quotes in writing from each community instead.
