Hi Linda, we are so pleased you enjoyed your visit to Ivy Park at Bonita! We sincerely thank you for the positive review and hope to see you again soon!
Though Bonita's monthly median cost of assisted living at $5,475 falls above the typical state and national prices of $5,250 and $4,500, respectively, it's competitive when compared to fees in nearby cities. The price nearly matches the cost of assisted living in Los Angeles at $5,250 but exceeds Riverside's at $4,000. However, Bonita's costs are much less expensive than those in nearby El Centro, at $6,150 per month.
