What to Consider About Assisted Living in Pinole

Pinole is a small residential community in the grassy hills of Contra Costa County, northeast of San Francisco, just outside of Richmond. Of Pinole's 19,000 people, almost 19 percent are seniors age 65 and over. This part of the Bay Area is home to 134 assisted living facilities, where seniors who need help with activities of daily living (ADLs) get assistance from staff

Residential care facilities in Pinhole and the rest of the state are licensed through the California Department of Social Services' Community Care Licensing Division, which inspects sites for quality of care.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Pinole

  • The climate in Pinole is generally mild and stable. Summer highs here average 74 degrees, with a peak in September, and winter lows average 43 degrees. Pinole gets 25 inches of rain a year, mostly in winter, though dry grass frequently burns in summer, which can cause issues for seniors with respiratory disorders.
  • Pinole's cost of living is high by national standards, though it is not far off from the average for California. Across all categories of expense, Pinole is about 71 percent above the national average, while California in general is 69 percent above the national cost of living. Much of this is housing cost, but healthcare in Pinole is roughly 2 percent above the average national rate.
  • Crime rates in Pinole are roughly 10 percent above the national average. Property crimes, such as theft, are more common than average for both California and the nation generally, though violent crime is still rare.
  • The Western Contra Costa Transit Authority (WestCAT) provides regular bus service around Pinole, down to the border of Richmond. For travel to the rest of the Bay Area, locals can ride buses and rail service from Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART). Both of these companies offer senior discounts and dial-a-ride service on demand.
  • The Pinole area is home to world-class medical facilities, including those specializing in brain health and dementia care such as Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Kaiser Permanente Walnut Creek Medical Center, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
  • Pinole has an array of community resources for seniors, including Contra Costa Senior Legal Services, an organization that provides no-cost legal services for seniors age 60 and over, as well as nearly a dozen senior centers.
