How we source
Every regulatory statement on this site links to the underlying state rule, regulator program page or federal source. Cost data comes from the published CareScout Cost of Care Survey tables. Population figures come from U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts.
What we will not publish
- Untraceable figures. If we cannot find a primary source, we say the number is unavailable rather than repeating what other sites say.
- Unverified facility details. We publish a community's name, address and care type only when confirmed against the operator's own published information. We do not publish bed counts, license numbers, pricing or star ratings we could not verify.
- Invented reviews or rankings. We do not rank communities, and we do not publish testimonials we cannot attribute.
Known limitations, stated openly
- There is no published median price for memory care anywhere. We do not estimate one.
- CareScout does not publish metro-specific cost tables. We cite state medians and say local pricing likely varies, without inventing a local figure.
- Our facility listings are smaller than aggregator directories because our verification standard excludes providers we could not confirm.
Corrections
If you find something wrong — particularly about your own community — email [email protected] and we will correct or remove it. Facility operators may request corrections to their listing at any time.
