The Genworth/CareScout Cost of Care Survey does not publish a figure for memory care. The median cost of assisted living in Kansas was $5,950 a month in the 2024 Genworth/CareScout Cost of Care Survey, against a national median of $5,900. That is a statewide figure, not a Kansas City figure, so ask each community in Kansas City for its current rates.
