How families pay for senior living in South Carolina

Most South Carolina families pay for assisted living, memory care and independent living out of their own pockets at first, drawing on savings, pensions, Social Security and often the proceeds from selling a home. Long-term care insurance, when a family already holds a policy, can offset part of the monthly cost as well. Veterans and surviving spouses who meet the eligibility rules may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, a benefit paid in addition to a standard VA pension that can be put toward the cost of care.

About these figures

Computed on October 22, 2026 from the 46 communities listed in Greenville, 2,900 public family reviews on Google, Yelp and MyLivingChoice, state licensing records and, for nursing homes, CMS Care Compare. The best-rated list ranks communities by average family rating weighted by how many families have reviewed each one, so a 4.9 from three reviews does not outrank a 4.7 from two hundred. No community pays to appear in the best-rated list or in these figures; sponsored and partner listings in the directory results are marked as such. Figures refresh as listings and reviews change; the written summary was last revised September 25, 2026.
