Licensing details checked against each agency's site on 2026-10-24. HUD requires a Section 232 assisted living project to be licensed or regulated by the state and have at least 20 beds.

CDC survey profile (2020)

The National Post-acute and Long-term Care Study, run by CDC's National Center for Health Statistics, estimates residential care communities with four or more beds. 2020 is its latest wave with state figures, so these numbers differ from the state's own list.
