How much does assisted living cost in Winter Haven?
Nobody publishes a Winter Haven figure; CareScout's 2025 Florida assisted living median is $66,000 a year, about $5,500 a month, and each building's quote depends on care level, apartment size and amenities.
Florida Medicaid long-term care plans can pay for assisted living services in contracted facilities, and OSS can help low-income residents with room and board; neither covers the whole bill.
Which Winter Haven assisted living facilities report a generator or Medicaid services?
