Expense Comparison Calculator

Why do we say it’s less expensive to live at Flushing House, as compared with staying at home? We’d all like to stay in our homes forever, because that’s where our hearts are. Homes are our sanctuaries, and many wouldn’t even think of living anywhere else. However, time for a reality check. The facts are that at certain stage in life, the physical and financial costs of maintaining our own homes, can become an overwhelming burden for many older adults. Because we are not for profit, our cost of living is far less than that of many other communities. Here you can enter your current cost of living and compare it to what a resident pays today at Flushing House with our unique expense comparison calculator below.
