Every scored community below carries a CARES score built from care, dining, social life, amenities, and facilities. For budgeting, Florida's statewide median for assisted living is about $5,610/month (Genworth); exact pricing in Fort Pierce depends on care level and apartment — ask CARA for current quotes.

How much does senior living cost in Fort Pierce?
Community-specific pricing varies with care level and apartment, so we don't guess at it — ask CARA or the community for a current quote. As a statewide baseline, Florida's median assisted living cost is about $5,610/month, and a semi-private nursing home room runs about $10,342/month (Genworth Cost of Care data).
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care?
Assisted living helps with daily tasks — bathing, dressing, medication — while residents stay largely independent. Memory care is a secured setting with staff trained specifically for Alzheimer's and dementia, higher supervision, and programming built around cognitive decline. Many communities offer both, so a resident can move between them without changing campuses.
How are Fort Pierce communities scored?
Every scored community gets an independent 0–10 CARES score built from five dimensions — care, dining, social life, amenities, and facilities — computed from each community's published information and aggregated public reviews, the same consistent way for every community. No community pays us, so no score is ever for sale. (See exactly how it works on our CARES methodology page.)
