What to Consider About Assisted Living in West Hollywood

West Hollywood senior living communities undergo licensing and monitoring by the California Senior Care Licensing Program. Two of its regional offices provide inspections within the city. The Woodland Hills South Adult & Senior Care Regional Office covers assisted living communities in the 90046 and 90069 zip codes, while the El Segundo ASC Regional Office covers those in the 90048 zip code.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in West Hollywood

  • West Hollywood is part of the AARP Age-Friendly Network, meaning the city strives to improve senior services to make the community more age-friendly. Additionally, the city scored a 52 on AARP’s overall livability index, putting it in the top half of communities nationwide.
  • Groceries and prescription medications are tax-exempt in California, which helps offset West Hollywood's relatively high sales tax rate of 10.25%.
  • Although West Hollywood doesn’t have a local hospital, its proximity to Hollywood and Los Angeles puts it within a short distance of several nationally renowned medical facilities. These include Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, which is less than 1.5 miles away and nationally recognized for geriatric care. The city is also about 2 miles from Southern California Hospital at Hollywood, which specializes in a range of services, including cardiology, critical care, vascular, surgical and urgent care.
  • West Hollywood's overall cost of living is nearly 92% higher than the national average, mainly due to very high housing costs. However, local health care costs about 10% less than the national average, helping partially offset the higher cost of certain items. Seniors in assisted living may also have greater control over their monthly expenses than those aging in place as assisted living communities generally offer fixed monthly fees.
  • West Hollywood’s warm, sunny climate is ideal for seniors who enjoy spending time outdoors. With summer highs around 78 degrees Fahrenheit and winter temperatures rarely dropping below 49 degrees Fahrenheit, the weather is one of the primary draws for seniors looking to escape harsh winters. The city also boasts 283 sunny days per year compared to 205 nationally.
