READ MOREThe Genworth Cost of Care Survey 2020 places assisted living in SLO CAL much higher than the national average. The average monthly cost for assisted living in the SLO CAL area is $5,800, which is $1,500 more per month than the national average of $4,300. The average for assisted living per month in California is $5,000, $800 a month less than SLO CAL. This amount is a reasonable increase based on the many benefits SLO CAL offers seniors.
Almost 95 miles to the east of SLO CAL and on the other side of the Coastal Mountains is Bakersfield, a more densely populated city. The monthly average for assisted living in Bakersfield is $3,613, much lower than the average for SLO CAL. The trade-off is being far from the coast and all the small-town amenities of San Luis Obispo County. North of Bakersfield and northeast of SLO CAL is Hanford averaging similar costs as Bakersfield at $3,975 a month. South of SLO CAL is Santa Maria, a smaller city with assisted living costs averaging $5,000 monthly and just south of Santa Maria is Oxnard averaging higher at $5,845. Venturing to the north of SLO CAL, seniors have choices for assisted living in Salinas. Still, the monthly average for assisted living is very high, at $7,100. Salinas has a very high cost of living.Â
