Assisted living is an ideal solution for seniors who are still active but need help with some activities of daily living such as preparing meals, transportation or grooming. Seniors who need consistent help with these activities or medical care are better suited for nursing homes, not assisted living. The Genworth Cost of Care Survey 2020 places Victorville’s cost of assisted living at $5,000 a month. That’s the same as the state average but several hundred dollars above the national average.
