Independent living offers a stress-free lifestyle for older adults. Independent living communities don’t provide personal care or supervision, but do offer generally healthy adults opportunities for socialization and hassle-free living. Independent living services often include:
Independent living communities, also known simply as retirement communities in Los Angeles, California, are geared towards seniors who are able to live on their own, without daily assistance, and prefer to live among people their age. This usually means residents are self-sufficient and do not require hands-on care. Think of Los Angeles retirement communities as age-restricted (typically 55+) complexes, which provide organized activities, meal services, and transportation.
The median monthly cost of independent living in Los Angeles is about $3,844 in the city proper, and $3,352 within the metropolitan area. The median monthly cost for independent living in the state of California is around $3,045.
For this type of senior living, Los Angeles, California offers many great options, and A Place for Mom can help you find the right one.
As one of the largest cities in the world and the cultural hub of the West Coast, living in Los Angeles can be extremely expensive. In terms of cost-of-living index scores, L.A. has nearly double the national average of 100 for cost of living. This is also reflected in the high property values as well as the high median rent. Nearly 30 percent of the population spends more than one-third of their income on housing alone.

Los Angeles is considered very friendly to members of the LGBTQ+ community. This means that members of the community are accepted by the general public and can actively participate in public life without fear of bigotry.
As the largest city on the West Coast, Los Angeles is filled with arts and cultural opportunities that can be found nowhere else in the world. For film buffs, there is Hollywood, the walk of fame, and the iconic Griffith Observatory that overlooks the city. Some might remember this location from the fight scene in the classic film Rebel without a Cause with James Dean and Natalie Wood. While the Getty Center and The Broad are world-renowned, there are many smaller art galleries throughout L.A. that showcase the forefront of the contemporary art scene. Living in L.A. means that residents have to contend with the high amounts of traffic and limited public transportation options. For many, having a car is a must to get anywhere.
