The 2021 Genworth Cost of Care Survey records Yucaipa’s median monthly home care fee as $5,911. Although this is above the national average of $4,957, it’s below California’s $6,101. This suggests seniors relocating from out of state may find the city costly. It also suggests those moving from elsewhere in California might find it more affordable. Yucaipa isn’t the most expensive city in Southern California. Nearby cities, such as San Diego and Riverside, are costlier — the former being $6,387 per month and the latter being $6,101. However, there are cheaper options in the region, such as Oxnard, at $5,815, and Bakersfield, at $5,506.
