In this blog, we’ll walk you through how our pricing works in our community, what’s included, and how we help you avoid the sticker shock and uncertainty often associated with the costs of senior living.

What Does Herndon, VA, Assisted Living Cost—And Why?

Assisted living is one of several senior living options offered in Herndon, Virginia, and is designed to deliver comfort, safety, and personalized care for those who need that extra helping hand with daily activities. But how do those services translate into actual costs?

Our pricing is structured to ensure that residents pay only for the care they need—nothing more, nothing hidden. This allows us to provide flexible, person-centered support while helping families plan confidently for the future.

The total monthly cost varies based on two major components:

  • Base rent (which covers housing, award-winning dining, activities, amenities, and more)

  • A customized plan for care based on individual needs

Here’s a more detailed breakdown of each to give you a clearer picture.

Base Monthly Rate

This covers everything your loved one needs to live comfortably at an award-winning community like Arbor Terrace Herndon.

  • A spacious private or companion apartment

  • Three chef-prepared meals daily, including snacks and hydrating beverages like water, tea, soda and more

  • Weekly housekeeping and laundry services

  • Full access to our engaging calendar of activities and events

  • 24/7 caregiving staff support for safety and peace of mind

This flat rate, while remaining flexible for changing needs, gives you a reliable starting point when budgeting for Herndon, VA, assisted living.
