The Genworth 2020 Cost of Care Survey discloses that the average assisted living facility in the United States charges $4,300 per month for services. In California, care costs tend to be higher, with average assisted living fees coming in at $5,000. Cost data isn’t available for San Mateo County, but because of its proximity to San Francisco, this city is used for the following cost comparison. Here, assisted living fees exceed state and national averages at $6,100 per month.
