What sober living costs in Colorado, and how residents pay for it
Across Colorado, sober living generally runs about $215 a week. Oxford House residents split the house's actual running costs equally rather than paying a set rent, so this home's share may be different — the house is the only source for its own figure. Median gross rent in Colorado sits at $1,761 a month. Residents short of the first payment often go through CDOC Community Re-Entry short-term rent and Medicaid HRSN Supportive Housing or similar state funding. Colorado Behavioral Health Administration administers that funding at state level.
How Oxford House membership works
Oxford Houses are self-governing households, financially self-supporting and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are interviewed and admitted by the people already living there, so the vacancy count reserves nothing.
Recovery housing standards in Colorado
Colorado does not treat recovery residences as licensed facilities. Colorado Agency for Recovery Residences (CARR) is the NARR affiliate here, and its certification is voluntary. Oxford Houses run on a charter from Oxford House, Inc., not state certification, so expect this address to be missing from the state list. The state's list of certified residences is published here. The federal Fair Housing Act applies, as does Colorado Fair Housing Law (Colorado Revised Statutes Section 24-34-502).
