READ MOREAlthough San Francisco is expensive for assisted living, Salinas, which is just outside of the Bay Area, costs exactly $1,000 more, at $7,100. Inland but only 110 miles away from San Francisco, Merced costs $3,750. This might be better for seniors looking for the sunshine and scenery of California without the high price tag. Another great choice for retirees on a budget is San Diego, where the price is slightly above the national average, at $4,525. Redding, in the most northern part of the state, costs less than the state average, at $4,500, as does Fresno, in the west, at $4,750 per month. El Centro, at the south of the state, is a little more affordable than the Bay Area, with a monthly average price of $5,825.

When comparing the cost of assisted living in San Francisco with the national and state averages using Genworth’s Cost of Care Survey, it’s clear that it’s not a cheap place to live. In fact, it’s nearly $2,000 more expensive than the U.S. average of $4,300, and more than $1,000 above California’s average of $5,000.
The Bay Area, and California as a whole, is focused on keeping seniors in their own homes for as long as possible. Financial help in paying for assisted living facilities is extremely limited when compared to in-home or nursing home care as a result of this statewide policy. The Assisted Living Waiver (ALW) program is available in San Francisco for people with full-scope Medi-Cal eligibility, although this does not cover all aspects of assisted living.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in California page.
While many families use their own funds or personal assets to pay for assisted living, there are plenty of additional options to cover these costs. Some additional ways to finance assisted living costs include:

Senior Community Service Employment Program | (415) 982-7007 | These work-based job training opportunities are a community service for older adults over age 55 who are unemployed and have a family income of below 125% of the state-sanctioned poverty level. The average work week is around 20 hours and there’s the potential to earn the maximum out of federal, state or local minimum wages. Seniors over the age of 65, veterans, those with disabilities, living in a rural area, at risk of homelessness and with low employment prospects will get priority treatment. |
Seniors Against Investment Fraud | (866) 275-2677 | Older adults over the age of 50 are targeted by scammers who commit financial and investment fraud, and SAIF is dedicated to preventing Californians falling victim to this type of crime. The goal of the organization is to empower seniors so they’re vigilant and informed about how to safely make investments and other important financial decisions. |
California Department of Justice | (415) 510-3476 | It’s crucial that seniors are informed about the various ways elder abuse can occur as they get older and potentially become more vulnerable. Abuse isn’t just a physical phenomena, but it can also be financial or emotional. The website contains useful information about how to spot the signs of elder abuse. There are also plenty of resources for anyone who’s concerned that they or someone close to them is suffering as a result of this terrible crime. |
Bay Area Older Adults | (408) 774-0593 | Bay Area Older Adults is a charity that aims to enrich the lives of individuals aged 50 and over. It does this by organizing fun events and giving seniors the opportunity to socialize on nature trails, sightseeing and learning to cook new foods. People who prefer going solo or taking part in activities with friends and family can still use its wealth of resources to explore the local area safely and joyfully. Membership is free. |
San Francisco Senior Beat | (415) 821-1003 | San Francisco Senior Beat is a digital magazine created for seniors in the Bay Area by seniors in the Bay Area. It includes various inspirational and moving stories and aims to give a platform to people who don’t necessarily always have their voices heard. The website also includes helpful links and local events for seniors. |
The Bay Area assisted living communities must adhere to the comprehensive set of state laws and regulations that all assisted living communities in California are required to follow. Visit our Assisted Living in California page for more information about these laws.
