Among Irvine’s many awards, the city ranked 15th on Livability’s Top 100 Best Places to Live for 2018 and has been consistently rated as one of the safest U.S. cities by the FBI. Active seniors will appreciate Irvine’s more than 16,000 acres of green spaces, which include walking and biking trails that wind throughout the city. While Irvine is central to many Orange County activities, older residents will find plenty of shopping, dining and attractions right in town at the one-stop Irvine Spectrum Center. The city sponsors a special council that advises on policies affecting its senior citizens, who make up nearly 9% of Irvine’s estimated 266,000 ethnically diverse residents.
To help seniors discover the most senior-friendly locations around the country, Caring.com conducted a new study, “The Best and Worst Places for Senior Living.” The Caring Senior Living Report analyzes and ranks 300 cities and 50 states on the quality of senior living in that area. The cities were graded using 46 metrics across five categories: Health Care, Senior Living & Housing, Affordability, Quality of life, and Transportation.

"Woodbridge Terrace of Irvine is a beautiful facility. They are renovating it. So you get a newer feeling to it. You can tell there's new paint and new carpet. Even though they are still working in some areas, it's a very nice-looking place. It's clean and the garden is nice. They have things that are pretty much all that a person could ask for. They have a dining room, a library, and several lounge areas on each floor. They have a cafe but you could tell that the garden was the best selling point. The rooms I saw were nice big sizes, both with the terrace. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable."

"I highly recommend Whispering Oaks board and care. The moment one walks into the facility it feels more like home. The caregivers take pride in their work!! In these times it is so difficult to find people who truly care about your loved one. They provided the best of care for my mother until her end of life. Our family is blessed to have found this board and care for our mother. Thank you!!"

"I went to Brookdale Irvine, and I liked it. However, because of my sister's condition and whatnot, it would be pricey. I like the environment. They had a small section off for a home theater. They had an outdoor patio, a game section, an arts and crafts section, a kitchen, and a big dining hall. They even had an area near the front entrance where someone was playing the piano. It was one of the occupants there. The lady I talked to was very nice. She gave me feedback. As a token of gratitude, they made a welcome pie for my sister, which she liked. They offered a variety of rooms. My sister would have a single room by herself that came with a refrigerator and a microwave."

"I toured and the place is spotless and very pleasant. All the residents there seemed very happy to be there. The staff was very professional and very kind to the residents. It was not a large area but it was very pleasant. It was shaded with lots of chairs and umbrellas. They had raised flower beds for the residents to do some planting activity, so it's really nice."

"I cannot say enough about how much our family appreciated all the warm care and consideration that Clearwater/Clearbrook's staff showed to my elderly aunt during her time there. From the moment you enter the premises, there is a welcome feeling of relaxed luxury that comes from the thoughtful design, with outdoor walking paths, greenery such as olive trees and shaded patios w bbq grills and lounge areas. Our favorite dining spot was the "pub", an indoor dog-friendly space which allowed my aunt to spend time with our family pets...no airplane food here! Having a chapel on site was such a unique amenity that brought us comfort as well. The best feature, however, is the staff, all of whom I felt did their best to make residents feel at home while partnering and communicating with family to provide the best care possible. Clearwater/Clearbrook's people, policies and environment have created such a positive space, which translates to and is felt by the residents and guests alike. We treasured her time there, and are so grateful to everyone for making her final journey a beautiful one."

"My parents both live at Columns Care Home. They are 95 years old and I'm very comfortable with their care. I happen to be very cautious in giving recommendations about care because I'm a registered nurse, and very picky about how my parents are cared for. This RCFE takes times to provide customized care, even down to my parents particular food likes and dislikes. The current owner, Charlie, has been told to shop tirelessly (4 supermarkets!) until he finally found my dad's sugar free chocolate ice-cream. The caregivers are patient, loving and gentle and they work very well with the hospice program that my mother is on. I can sleep fitfully at night because the owner and staff at Columns Care Home treat my folks like they are their folks. What more could a daughter ask for? Thank you Jovie, Maria, Isa, and of course, Charlie. Readers, I provided this info at no one's request. "
