Senior Living Apartments in Fort Worth, TX

Last Updated: 2/21/25

Fort Worth is ideal for retirees seeking a small-town feel in a big-city environment. Fort Worth is considered a part of the greater Dallas area, sometimes referred to as Dallas-Fort Worth or DFW, Texas. Whatever you call the area, it’s filled with culture, taste, and sunshine, offering an array of options for entertainment, health care, and senior living — including A Place for Mom’s partner senior apartments.

With this guide, you’ll learn about the types of senior apartment communities available in Fort Worth and understand how to navigate your options. We deliver you our proprietary data, with real resident ratings and information on price, cleanliness, activities, amenities, services, and pet-friendliness.

Food is better but was awful in previous months. Don't know about activities because mother does not participate. It's high rent. I really don't think it's worth 3,144 per month. There is a lot of turnover in the staff. That is the main issue.

Caterers are mediocre and residents are expected to provide a lot [name removed]has brought food often which is a ++ for her. I expected more food provided and I think that would be good to know. Especially that there are a fair number of resident bring food events. Everyone enjoys different things and we can't all be happy with all the activities. Pick what you like and be grateful for those. Do something else if the activity doesn't appeal to you. I love living at Solea and I feel like the community saved me after my husband died. They offered friendship, camaraderie, places to go and things to do! I did not become an apartment hermit!! And I have a real sense of family. I think it's important to get out and about if you want to live a healthy life and no building can do that. You have to take some steps to meet people halfway

How seniors pay for senior apartments in Fort Worth

Seniors typically pay for a senior apartment the same way they’d pay rent at any ordinary apartment — using a combination of their personal income resources. Senior veterans or their spouses may also qualify for some veterans benefits from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), which can help pay rent at a senior apartment.

Senior apartments aren’t covered by Medicaid, Medicare, or long-term care insurance. However, those resources may cover some in-home health care services within a senior apartment. They may also be used to pay for a senior care facility, should future care needs arise.

Below you’ll find useful information on private payment methods, veterans benefits, Medicaid, Medicare, and local housing assistance. You’ll also learn about how these payment methods may apply to potential care needs in the future.

Private pay methods in Fort Worth

Seniors typically use private payment methods to pay rent at senior apartments in Fort Worth. These methods usually include income sources like your savings accounts, retirement pensions, investment returns, and/or Social Security benefits. And, depending on your current situation, the following options may also help pay for senior living costs:

Understand Texas laws and regulations for senior apartments

Senior apartments in Texas are not regulated by a state agency. They’re regulated the same as any standard apartment complex. And, just like any rental property, senior apartments are required to comply with general Texas housing laws, such as the Texas Property Code and Fair Housing Act. These laws help ensure that senior apartment residents in Texas are not discriminated against and that they’re provided with safe, well-maintained housing. Furthermore, most Texas senior apartments have a minimum age requirement of 55, with some apartments raising it to 62.

Below, you’ll find a summary of some of the rights you have as a tenant at a senior apartment. You’ll also find a breakdown of how senior apartments must accommodate seniors with a disability.

What are my rights as a senior apartment tenant in Texas?

Senior apartment communities are required to comply with the state’s housing and apartment regulations for landlords and tenants. It’s useful to learn about tenant’s rights, as it’ll help you find a safe and satisfactory living situation while you rent.

Here’s a brief overview of some important tenants’ rights in Texas:

  • Residents hold the right to ask their landlord to repair problems that risk their health and safety, and landlords must make a diligent effort to repair the problems at hand.
  • Residents may terminate their lease if a problem that affects their health hasn’t been resolved after two notices to the landlord and within a reasonable timeframe — usually seven days.
  • Residents may hire an external contractor to fix the problems at hand if their landlord fails to resolve issues that affect their health after multiple notices within a reasonable timeframe. Residents can then submit their expenses to the landlord to deduct from their rent.

Before attempting to terminate a lease or hiring an external contractor, it’s strongly recommended that you reach out to an attorney or a local tenants association. Consulting a housing expert will prevent you from breaching any lease agreements, and it’ll hopefully lead you to the end result you desire. It’s also recommended that tenants provide multiple written notices to their landlord and keep a copy of each notice as proof.

If you’re seeking more information on your rights as a senior apartment tenant, be sure to read the Texas Tenants’ Rights Handbook.

How do senior apartments accommodate seniors with disabilities?

In Texas, federal nondiscrimination laws — such as the Fair Housing Act, Section 504, and Americans with Disabilities Act (or ADA) — protect tenants from being discriminated against due to disability. This prohibits senior apartment landlords from refusing housing due to a senior’s disability. Furthermore, these laws require housing providers to provide reasonable accommodations and modifications in housing, programs, and activities for individuals with disabilities.

If you’re a senior with a disability, you have the right to request reasonable accommodations and modifications within your senior apartment community. Reasonable accommodations are defined as changes to facility policies. Some examples of reasonable accommodations include the following:

  • Allowing a service animal to live with a resident even when there’s a no-pets policy in place
  • Assigning a parking spot for easy entry to the resident’s building
  • Changing the due date of rent to reflect a resident’s disability income payment dates

Modifications are structural changes to common areas and individual units. Some examples of reasonable modifications in line with ADA include the following:

  • Installing a specialized smoke detector for a resident with a hearing impairment
  • Adding a wheelchair ramp to enable a disabled resident to easily access shared spaces and participate in resident activities
  • Installing grab bars or widening doorways in a resident’s unit to accommodate wheelchair users

These nondiscrimination laws apply to all senior apartments in Fort Worth. Senior apartment landlords are required to pay for such modifications unless providing them would pose an undue financial or administrative burden. If you’d like more information, see this detailed infographic on reasonable accommodations and modifications for Texas renters.

Who do I contact for additional questions or concerns while renting a senior apartment?

For general concerns, Fort Worth offers an overview of renter’s rights and guidelines on its city website. For further questions regarding a rental lease, the city recommends that renters reach out to the following agencies:

  • Better Business Bureau
    1612 Summit Ave.
    Fort Worth, TX 76102
    Phone: 817-332-7585
  • Legal Aid of NorthWest Texas

What to expect from senior apartments in Fort Worth

Since then, the city has begun to implement aging-friendly practices across the following domains for seniors:

  • Outdoor spaces and buildings
