What sober living costs in Alabama, and how residents pay for it
Typical sober living in Alabama costs around $150 a week. An Oxford House does not set a rent — members split what the house actually costs to run, so the figure here is a guide to the market, not to this home. For comparison, median gross rent across Alabama is $1,007 a month. Residents short of the first payment often go through ADMH Recovery Housing Initiative and veterans SSVF or similar state funding. The agency behind it is Alabama Department of Mental Health.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, covered by the members' equal shares and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are taken on by those already in the home, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.
How recovery housing is regulated in Alabama
Recovery residences are not state-licensed in Alabama. Certification is voluntary and administered by Alabama Alliance for Recovery Residences (AARR), the NARR affiliate for the state. An Oxford House answers to Oxford House, Inc. rather than to a state certifying body, so it rarely appears on state registers. You can browse the certified residences in Alabama. Alabama Fair Housing Law (Code of Alabama Section 24-8-4) applies alongside the federal Fair Housing Act.

Sober houses serve as a transitional environment between such programs and mainstream society.
