Supportive housing is generally designed to be affordable, especially for older adults on fixed incomes. Costs vary widely depending on the provider and the type of building, but many programs offer rent that is geared to income (RGI). Some units operate under the Residential Tenancies Act and may follow rent control guidelines, while others receive government funding to subsidize monthly charges. In most cases, residents pay rent plus a modest fee for support services like meals or housekeeping.
Supportive housing can be operated by non-profits, community organizations, or private landlords partnered with government programs. Because of this, pricing isn’t standardized across the province or even within a city. Factors like funding sources, level of support provided, and building ownership all impact what a resident may pay. It's best to speak directly with the provider to understand eligibility, waitlists, and what’s included in the cost.
If you know the approximate rent and service charges in a supportive housing building, you can use our Senior Housing Cost Calculator to compare costs with living in your current home or moving to a retirement residence. Keep in mind that supportive housing costs are often lower, but waitlists may be long and availability limited.
