The surrounding San Fernando community is home to 24,700 people, only 8 percent of whom are seniors age 65 and over. The Valley floor area has at least 162 assisted living facilities where seniors can live independently while getting help with the normal activities of daily living (ADLs).

This area of Southern California gets 16.5 inches of rain a year, on average, though frequent droughts make rainfall unpredictable in any given year. Summer dust and smog can be an issue for some seniors with respiratory disorders like COPD or asthma.
