Situated squarely in the Great Plains, Kansas offers a quiet, relaxing life for seniors. Its wide-open spaces and lower-than-average cost of living make the Sunflower State a great retirement destination. With its endless skies and yellow, flowing grasslands, the blank canvas of the Kansas landscape brings a calming sense of liberation. While driving from Wichita to Kansas City, take a detour on the Flint Hills Scenic Byway to experience Tallgrass Prairie National Reserve — you’ll see why Kansas adopted “Home on the Range” as its official state anthem.
Currently, A Place for Mom partners with 195 senior living communities in Kansas that provide assisted living. Our Senior Living Advisors can provide you with a list of assisted living communities in Kansas to help you find the ideal fit for your needs and budget.
In Kansas, the median monthly cost of assisted living is about $4,500, according to Genworth.

I love the inviting and cheerful atmosphere that is present at Abilene Place South. Everyone is very accommodating to the various needs of the residents. We did have a concern early on and I appreciated the cooperation and how quickly a solution was reached. There are many activities available for the residents to take part in if they so wish. Snacks are available at all times. Abilene Place South is a great place for our mom.
Read moreBrookdale is a smaller place, which I like, and all the staff seem involved in taking care of the residents. They have been very good at adjusting to my dad's needs. The food is really good. I've had several meals there, and my dad has also been very happy with it. They have cards, memory games, and lots of field trips, outings, and social get-togethers to keep the residents engaged and stimulated. The community is clean, and I love that they have been letting me brings our dogs when I visit. Brookdale just has a good feeling about it. It feels more like a home, like a family than an institution.
Read moreEmporia Place has been a blessing in so many ways for our family. The moment you walk in the door your feel as though you're entering a home rather than a long term care facility. The staff goes over and beyond to provide excellent care for our mother and treat her like family. They are always hosting events, parties, and different activities that keep the residents entertained and involved. The staff is extremely competent, trustworthy, and always willing to make any request we have a reality. Knowing that my mother is well cared for, happy, and enjoying life each and every day is all I could ever ask for and we have Emporia Place to thank for that. They truly love my family as their own and that in itself is irreplaceable. Emporia Place Staff--THANK YOU!!
