What to Consider About Assisted Living in El Monte

Located in the San Gabriel Valley east of Los Angeles, El Monte is historically known as "The End of the Santa Fe Trail.” The city boasts a population of 116,000 residents, 12.6 percent of whom are age 65 and older. Should these seniors require help with the activities of daily living, four assisted living facilities in El Monte and 71 others nearby are available to support them.

In El Monte as in the rest of California, assisted living communities are called Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly (RCFEs). They are licensed and regulated by the California Department of Social Services’ Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD) and Continuing Care Contracts Branch.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in El Monte

  • El Monte’s air quality is very poor, which may limit the amount of time active seniors can comfortably spend outdoors. The American Lung Association gives El Monte’s location in Los Angeles County an air quality grade of “F” for both ozone and particle pollution.

  • The El Monte area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Greater El Monte Community Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
