Assisted Living Cost Comparison in Washington

The average cost of assisted living in Federal Way is approximately $5,750 per month, which is higher than both the state and national averages.

The cost of assisted living in Federal Way has risen dramatically, with the average monthly cost reaching $5,750, far exceeding the national median of $4,500. For many seniors and their families, these rising costs create significant financial stress, forcing difficult decisions about care and quality of life.

I am committed to tackling this affordability crisis by implementing smart financial solutions, expanding access to alternative care models, and increasing transparency in senior housing costs.

✅ Expanding Affordable Senior Housing – Work with state and federal programs to increase funding for affordable assisted living options and create more middle-income senior housing alternatives.

✅ Incentivizing Nonprofit & Community-Based Care – Support home care programs, shared living models, and public-private partnerships that provide quality senior care at a lower cost.

✅ Cutting Red Tape & Increasing Transparency – Advocate for cost regulations, better oversight of senior facility pricing, and increased transparency in billing practices.

✅ Providing More Senior Assistance Programs – Strengthen local tax relief, financial assistance, and grant programs to help seniors afford the care they need without financial strain.

Seniors deserve affordable, high-quality care that allows them to age with dignity. As a candidate for City Council, I will fight for policies that bring down the cost of assisted living while ensuring that our seniors receive the care and respect they deserve.
