Also, you need to provide your own furniture and you do not get a lease. It is on a month-to-month basis only. The one thing that I liked about these facilities is that you can get a Villages resident ID card so you can use the Villages amenities. If that is important, to you need to verify it, because at some local assisted living facilities, you will no longer be a Villages resident.

Almost all I've looked at are on a month to month basis and I've not found anything lower than 3800.00 and that's just for a tiny studio in pretty iffy surroundings. Also, the furniture some provide are just left over pieces previous residents have left when they passed away.
