What a home like this is

With sixteen or more licensed beds, this is what most people call an assisted living community. It is licensed under the same RCFE rules as a six-bed board and care home, but usually offers a dining room, a schedule of activities, and a larger team on site. Base rent often covers housing and meals, with personal care priced in levels on top.

What it may cost

Assisted living base rent in LA County typically runs $5,098 to $5,550 a month before care levels are added. Every home sets its own rates, so the only way to know is to ask.
