Common questions about senior care in California

How many board and care homes are there in California?
AssistedFinder lists 6,899 board and care homes in California, licensed for a combined 40,526 residents.
Are there small residential care homes in California?
Yes. 6899 of the California facilities on this listing are licensed for six residents or fewer — the small board-and-care format, typically a converted house with a handful of residents and a higher staff-to-resident ratio than a large community.
Is memory care available in California?
Yes. 4150 California facilities offer memory care for residents with Alzheimer's or another form of dementia. Memory care is an authorization a facility holds rather than a separate building type, so assisted living communities and small board-and-care homes both appear on the memory care listing.
Which California ZIP codes have board and care homes?
Listings in California fall in 791 ZIP codes: 90001, 90003, 90004, 90008, 90016, 90018, 90019, 90024, 90025, 90027, 90029, 90034, 90035, 90037, 90038, 90039, 90041, 90043, 90044, 90045, 90046, 90047,
