One of the first questions families ask is “How much does it cost?” The answer varies by location, care level, and community type. Here’s what Central Valley families can expect.
Regional Price Comparisons
Fresno area: $3,800-5,500/month. Merced County: $3,200-4,800. San Joaquin County: $3,500-5,200. Bay Area comparison: $7,000-12,000/month for similar services.
What’s Included
Most communities include room and board, meals, personal care, housekeeping, activities, and utilities. Additional costs may apply for higher care levels or memory care. Velora’s pricing is transparent and all-inclusive.
Paying for Senior Living
Options include long-term care insurance, Veterans Aid and Attendance benefits, personal savings, home sale proceeds, and Medi-Cal. Our admissions team helps families explore all resources.
The Value Equation
A lower rate at a small board-and-care may mean limited activities, basic meals, and minimal staffing. Velora offers chef-prepared meals, daily activities, 24/7 licensed staff, memory care, and hospice support.
Bay Area Savings
The difference between San Jose rates ($9,000/month) and Velora can mean $3,000-5,000 in monthly savings — $36,000-60,000 annually.
