Care homes, senior housing and 55+ communities in Saint Louis
If you searched for care homes near me, senior housing near me or 55 and older communities near me in Saint Louis, this is the right page for the care side of that search. "Care home" is the everyday phrase for what regulators in Missouri license as a nursing home, assisted living community, personal care home or board and care home, and every one of them in Saint Louis is listed here with its rating, inspection record and estimated monthly cost.
The same is true of the broader searches — nursing homes near me, senior living near me and independent living near me. Nursing homes near you in Saint Louis carry a CMS overall star rating, a health inspection score and published staffing hours, and those numbers are shown on every listing below. Senior living is the umbrella term families use for the whole spectrum, from independent apartments through assisted living to skilled nursing, so this page covers the licensed portion of it in one place.
Senior housing and 55+ communities are different: they are age-restricted apartments, villas or retirement communities that sell housing, amenities and social programming, but employ no licensed caregivers. Once a resident needs someone else's hands for bathing, dressing or medications, a licensed care home in Saint Louis is the right setting, and nursing care homes add round-the-clock licensed nursing on top of that.
Independent living sits at the same end of the spectrum as senior housing: one monthly fee covers the apartment, meals, housekeeping, transportation and activities, but no licensed care. Because independent living is not licensed care, there is no Missouri inspection record to look up — see our independent living guide for 2026 cost benchmarks and the tour questions that replace it.
Small residential care homes in a converted house often cost less per month than a large Saint Louis community, and they appear in this directory side by side with the big names. If moving is not the goal, 24-hour home care is the third option — see our home care guide for hourly, live-in and around-the-clock cost benchmarks.

Saint Louis senior care questions, answered
How much does senior care cost in Saint Louis, Missouri?
The average senior care in Missouri runs about $4,300 per month, and Saint Louis pricing typically lands between $3,655 and $5,160 depending on room type, care level and whether memory support is included. Our free senior care cost data page publishes the full state-by-state table with no email required, and Clear Care Connect shows an estimated monthly range on each individual Saint Louis facility profile.
What is the difference between assisted living and memory care in Saint Louis?
Assisted living in Saint Louis supports residents who need help with activities of daily living — bathing, dressing, medication reminders — but who can still move safely around a community. Memory care is a secured, higher-staffed environment purpose-built for Alzheimer's and other dementias, with locked exteriors, dementia-trained staff and structured routines. Memory care typically costs 30–40% more per month than assisted living in the same Saint Louis building, and many Missouri communities offer both on one campus so residents can move between levels without leaving.
How many senior care facilities are in Saint Louis?
Clear Care Connect currently tracks 36 senior care providers in and around Saint Louis, Missouri, each with its official rating, inspection history where available and an estimated monthly cost range. The list below is generated directly from federal and state records, not from paid placements.
Where can I find care homes near me in Saint Louis?
Every licensed care home in and around Saint Louis, Missouri is listed on this page — nursing care homes, personal care homes, board and care homes and assisted living communities — with its government rating, inspection history where available and an estimated monthly cost. Facility names, addresses and phone numbers are free to view. If you would rather stay put, 24-hour home care is an alternative to moving into a care home.
Where can I find nursing homes near me and senior living near me in Saint Louis?
This page is the Saint Louis answer to both searches. Every Medicare-certified nursing home near you in Saint Louis, Missouri appears here with its CMS overall star rating, health inspection score and staffing data, and every licensed senior living community — assisted living, memory care and personal care homes — appears alongside it with an estimated monthly cost. The list is generated from federal and state records, so a provider shows up because it is licensed and operating, not because it paid for the placement.
Is there independent living near me in Saint Louis?
Independent living in Saint Louis is age-restricted housing with meals, housekeeping, transportation and activities bundled into one monthly fee, but no licensed care staff — which is why states do not inspect or rate it the way they rate nursing homes and assisted living. Read our independent living guide for 2026 costs and the questions to ask on a tour, then use this Saint Louis directory to check the rating on the assisted living side of any campus you are considering, since that is the best forward-looking signal about the operator.
Is senior housing or a 55+ community in Saint Louis the same as assisted living?
No. Senior housing and 55 and older communities in Saint Louis are age-restricted apartments that provide amenities and social programming but no licensed care staff. Assisted living, personal care homes and other care homes are licensed to help residents with bathing, dressing and medications, and nursing care homes add round-the-clock licensed nursing. Choose senior housing when a parent is independent, and a licensed care home in Saint Louis once daily hands-on help is needed.
What should I look for when choosing a senior care facility in Saint Louis?
Start with the government data: CMS overall star rating, health inspection score, staffing hours per resident per day, and the number and severity of deficiencies in the last three survey cycles. Then verify staff turnover, ask what the ratio is overnight and on weekends, confirm exactly which services are bundled into the base monthly rate in Saint Louis, and check whether the community accepts Missouri Medicaid if long-term funding may be needed. Finally, tour twice — once scheduled and once unannounced at a mealtime.
