Sober living costs and rent help in South Carolina

The going rate for sober living in South Carolina is around $165 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 scale, renting privately in South Carolina has a median gross rent of $1,180 a month. Where paying the share is not possible, state-funded help such as Recovery Housing Program and Young Adult Recovery Housing Assistance is the usual route. South Carolina Dept. of Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Services / Dept. of Behav is the state body to start with.

What to know before calling an Oxford House

Oxford Houses are run by the people who live in them, self-funding and kept free of alcohol and illicit drugs. New members are voted in by a house vote, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.

How recovery housing is regulated in South Carolina

Recovery housing in South Carolina operates without a state licence. Voluntary certification runs through South Carolina Alliance for Recovery Residences (SCARR), the state's NARR affiliate. Because Oxford Houses are chartered nationally by Oxford House, Inc. rather than certified locally, they seldom show on a state registry. Residents are protected by the federal Fair Housing Act and by South Carolina Fair Housing Law (South Carolina Code of Laws Section 31-21-40).
