At McKinley Place, the monthly costs for various room types reflect a competitive pricing structure compared to both Washington County and the broader state of Wisconsin. For a semi-private room, residents can expect to pay $2,402, which is significantly lower than the county's average of $3,809 and the state's average of $3,977. Studio apartments at McKinley Place are also priced favorably at $3,405, in contrast to higher rates observed in Washington County at $4,386 and slightly above the state average of $3,999. However, for those seeking a one-bedroom unit, McKinley Place stands out with a cost of $4,591; this figure is notably higher than both Washington County's average of $3,451 and Wisconsin's average of $3,412. Overall, while McKinley Place offers attractive pricing for semi-private and studio options, its one-bedroom rates suggest it may cater to a different market segment or provide additional amenities that justify the increase.
