Cost of recovery housing in Texas
Typical sober living in Texas costs around $185 a week. Because Oxford House members share the home's real expenses instead of paying rent, this house's share may sit above or below that; only the residents can say. Median gross rent statewide in Texas is $1,403 a month, for context. Where paying the share is not possible, state-funded help such as Be Well Texas vouchers and Project HOMES is the usual route. Texas Health and Human Services Commission is where that funding sits.
The Oxford House model and the resident interview
Oxford Houses are governed by their own residents, financially self-supporting and substance-free as a condition of membership. New members are interviewed and admitted by the existing membership, so calling the house is the only way to learn what is actually free.
Recovery housing standards in Texas
Texas does not license this kind of housing. Texas Recovery Oriented Housing Network (TROHN) is the NARR affiliate here, and its certification is voluntary. Oxford House charters its own homes, so an Oxford House is usually not on a state affiliate's certified register. A directory of certified residences is maintained for the state. People in recovery are a protected class under the Fair Housing Act and under Texas Fair Housing Law (Texas Property Code Section 301.021).
