When families search for assisted living, Illinois is often at the top of the list — and for good reason.
People often say Illinois is a small version of the United States as a whole, meaning the state has a little bit of everything the country has to offer. With mostly moderate weather, plus plenty of farmland and rural towns to go along with its mid-size industrial cities and Chicago — the third-largest city in the U.S. — Illinois is a uniquely desirable retirement destination. It’s the quintessential Midwestern state, bordering the Mississippi River in the west, the Ohio River in the east, and Lake Michigan in the north. The “Land of Lincoln” also has a rich political history: Other than Honest Abe, several other U.S. presidents have called Illinois home, including Ulysses S. Grant, Ronald Reagan, and Barack Obama.
Currently, A Place for Mom partners with more than 540 senior living communities in Illinois that provide assisted living.
The median monthly cost of assisted living in Illinois is about $4,900.

We made the decision to move mom into Reflections Memory Care a few months ago and we still think that we made an excellent choice for mom. We liked what they had to offer and we knew it was a good fit and did not look any further at other communities. The atmosphere is very warm and inviting. We always feel like we are welcome when we come and visit mom. The staff is friendly and caring and attentive to her care needs. She is quite comfortable in her room. There are plenty of activities that the staff encourages the residents to engage and she is participating and making new friends. I don't know that she has ventured outside to enjoy the fresh air with the weather as hot as it is now. We would recommend this community to others.

The average cost of senior living in Royalton is 3,629 per month. Cheaper nearby regions include Marion, IL with an average of 3,100 per month.
Planning ahead can better position you to make good choices for your loved one’s care in the future. But if your aging family member needs care now, there are ways to finance the cost of long-term care through a combination of approaches.
Assisted living is long-term care for seniors who are generally active and independent, but who require increased supervision and help with some daily tasks. Staff can assist residents with activities of daily living like dressing, bathing, and medication management. Assisted living is also a good option for seniors seeking more socialization. Services and amenities in assisted living facilities often include:
Lutheran Home Assisted Living, Cedarhurst of Centralia and The Landings at Reed Station Crossing are the top rated assisted living facilities near Royalton, Illinois. See full list of communities.
