Cost of recovery housing in Texas
A sober living bed in Texas usually costs about $185 a week. An equal share of the home's actual costs is what Oxford House members pay, so the number above describes the market rather than this house. Median gross rent statewide in Texas is $1,403 a month, for context. Residents short of the first payment often go through Be Well Texas vouchers and Project HOMES or similar state funding. Texas Health and Human Services Commission handles recovery-housing funding for the state.
How an Oxford House is run
Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, funded by an equal share from each resident and free of alcohol and drugs. New members are chosen by the members themselves, so the opening shown here is a past report rather than an offer.
