What a bed costs in Tennessee, and what help exists
Typical sober living in Tennessee costs around $165 a week. That is a market figure, not this home's. Oxford House members divide the actual running costs equally, so ask the house directly. Statewide, median gross rent in Tennessee runs $1,189 a month. Residents who cannot cover a share outright often go through state-funded routes such as TDMHSAS Creating Homes Initiative and Housing Choice Voucher. Tennessee Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services handles recovery-housing funding for the state.
What to know before calling an Oxford House
Oxford Houses are managed day to day by their residents, supported entirely by the residents' own contributions and required to stay substance-free. New members are approved by a house vote, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.
Recovery residence standards and oversight in Tennessee
Tennessee does not license this kind of housing. Homes that want certification apply to Tennessee Alliance of Recovery Residences (TN-ARR), the state NARR affiliate. Oxford Houses run on a charter from Oxford House, Inc., not state certification, so expect this address to be missing from the state list. Tennessee Fair Housing Law (Tennessee Code Section 4-21-601) applies alongside the federal Fair Housing Act.
