Costs of independent living in the Charlotte area

Independent living communities in Charlotte cost an average of $3,367 per month, according to our proprietary data.[01] This takes into account any additional fees and the cost of potential add-on services and fees, such as the following:

  • One-time community entrance fee
  • Monthly pet fees
  • Monthly parking fees
  • HOA fees in some communities

Some communities include certain costs in the standard monthly rent, such as utilities, cable, and Wi-Fi. Independent living communities also may offer options that are a la carte, meaning they can be added to your monthly rent individually for extra costs. The following services may be included in these costs:

  • Housekeeping
  • Salon services
  • Personal laundry
  • Transportation services

When touring independent living communities, you’ll want to ask what’s included in the baseline rent to avoid paying for any additional amenities or services you don’t want. The baseline rent, or starting costs, tends to look a little different from the one we provide above. You can take a look at what the starting costs of independent living in Charlotte look like below, particularly as they compare to other nearby locales.

How people pay for independent living in Charlotte, NC

Many residents of independent living in Charlotte often use private funds to pay for community costs. Since these communities typically don’t provide the level of care provided in an assisted living or memory care facility, the services and living costs typically aren’t covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and long-term care insurance.

However, if a person residing in an independent living community experiences a medical need for in-home care services, those may be covered by Medicaid and Medicare. There are also public assistance and veterans benefits that some seniors may qualify for. We detail each of those private and public funding options below.

Private pay methods in Charlotte

Many seniors use personal funds from savings or retirement income to pay for an independent living community in Charlotte. This can also look like any additional proceeds you can collect from the following sources:

Understand North Carolina laws and regulations for independent living communities  

Stand-alone independent living communities in Charlotte aren’t regulated by the state and often aren’t licensed to provide medical care or other supportive services. For the most part, North Carolina considers independent living communities the same as senior apartments. This means independent senior living communities must comply with Charlotte’s minimum housing code, which is enforced by code inspectors who observe and report any of the following violations:

  • Loose flooring
  • Broken windows
  • Unsafe ceiling or roof
  • Leaking roof or plumbing fixtures
  • Hazardous wiring
  • Damaged structural supports
  • Stained or water-damaged interior walls

Residents at an independent senior living community can expect a landlord-tenant type of relationship. This means that property owners and tenants are expected to meet certain responsibilities outlined in the North Carolina Legal Aid brochure on Landlord-Tenant laws. We detail some expectations for both parties below, as well as anti-discrimination housing laws.

Responsibilities of landlords

Owners of rental properties are required to keep the building and units in safe and suitable conditions for residents. By law, landlords in North Carolina must do the following:

  • Keep plumbing, heating, and electric equipment in safe working order
  • Provide smoke alarms
  • Make all necessary repairs
  • Fix all broken-down appliances, if provided by the landlord
  • Inform residents if they sell the property
  • Keep all common areas, such as hallways and stairways, clear and in a safe condition

Tenant responsibilities

Tenants must also own their fair share of responsibilities when renting a property in North Carolina. The state law requires tenants to do the following:

  • Properly dispose of trash
  • Avoid unnecessary damages caused by tenants or guests
  • Provide proper notice of your intention to move at the end of a lease
  • Keep the unit clean
  • Pay rent on time

Fair housing

In North Carolina, all rental properties have to follow federal and state antidiscrimination housing laws. The Fair Housing Act, in particular, prohibits landlords from denying a tenant to lease a property from them because of the characteristics below:

Reasonable accommodations and modifications for people with disabilities

Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), landlords are required to make reasonable accommodations and modifications to a property if it gives disabled individuals equal access to the spaces. Accommodation can look like any changes or exemptions to certain policies, while modifications are constructional adjustments to the building. Both accommodations and modifications help people with disabilities enjoy their units or common areas to the fullest.

Landlords must also let tenants make reasonable modifications to their personal living spaces. Some examples of these modifications are listed below:

  • Installing grab bars
  • Widening doorways
  • Lowering light switches
  • Installing ramps at building entrances

If you have concerns about a community not complying with the city’s minimum housing code, you can report violations on the Charlotte Housing and Neighborhoods Services page or dial 3-1-1 to request an inspection.

COVID-19 regulations for Charlotte independent living communities

As of February 2023, North Carolina doesn’t have any COVID-19 regulations or mandates in place for independent living communities. However, COVID-19 and its variants continue to be a threat to high-risk populations like seniors. You can check directly with prospective independent living communities about any precautions they may have in place to keep residents and staff safe.

Social distancing. DHSS continues to recommend staying 6 feet apart in all public settings.

Masking. Masks are encouraged in indoor public spaces, especially if you’re unvaccinated or in a setting with high-risk populations.
