[quote=Anonymous]Put your name on lists NOW for city-owned senior living facilities. The waiting list is a few years long, but it will get you in a subsidized spot. My uncle moved into one recently in Southern California - it's wonderful. It costs him around $500/month, which is significantly cheaper than the rent he was paying prior to getting off the waiting list. He had a spotty work history due to a debilitating illness that kept him on Medicaid. He was forever stuck in that loop of Medicaid giving him his medication, but couldn't make more money otherwise he'd lose his meds and doctors. It was horrible. So the fact that you have a $30K state pension is already good! Blue states have some wonderful resources for seniors. I think you would qualify for a spot in an income-restricted senior building. Nicer towns have nicer buildings with better clientel. [/quote]
