When his grandmother was no longer able to live safely at home, Tal Ziv and his relatives set out to help her find the best senior care facility -- better known as assisted living communities. It's an experience many families face at some point, and it's not always an easy one. What's more, the stakes are high; we want loved ones to be at home in a great environment, but there's also the fact that the average cost of senior living communities is $80K. Assisted living facilities are expensive, and, while they're all very different, it can be tough to distinguish without visiting each and every one.
