Costs Savings: The Numbers

At least 30% of Americans over 65 still carry a mortgage. On average, seniors spend $1000/month on housing alone—not including HOA or condo fees.

From property taxes to maintenance and utilities, homeownership costs add up fast. Monthly out-of-pocket expenses for homes valued between $150K–$500K range from $1,100 to $3,000.

Home health care averages $25/hour. Even with minimum support (3 hours/day, 30 days/month), that’s around $1,800 per month.

Pottery class? Book club? Sunday brunch? It all adds up. Most seniors spend about $250/month on recreation and enrichment.

Internet, cable, and landlines—the classic “triple play”—can exceed $250/month on your own.

Doctor visits, grocery runs, and errands rack up. The average monthly transportation cost for seniors? $715.

With recent inflation, three meals a day, vitamins, and special diets total nearly $750 per month for most seniors.
