Why we like it

The Forum at Rancho San Antonio is a 817-bed continuing care retirement community spanning 51 acres in Cupertino, adjacent to the spectacular 3,988-acre Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve. This equity-ownership Life Plan Community has been licensed for over 29 years and was voted Best Retirement Community in Silicon Valley by Mercury News readers three years in a row (2023-2025).

With spacious villas and apartment homes, multiple dining venues including The Ridge and The Bistro, a heated pool, putting green, dog park, art studio, and farm-to-table dining, The Forum is one of the most established and highly regarded senior communities in Northern California.

  • Exceptional safety record

    Earned a 9.8 FYI Safety Score, placing it among the very best in the state for regulatory compliance and resident safety.

  • Unmatched natural setting

    51-acre campus adjacent to the 3,988-acre Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve. Residents enjoy hiking trails, bird watching, gardening, and outdoor recreation right from their doorstep.

  • Equity ownership model

    A resident-owned Life Plan Community where residents elect the board of directors and have final say on budgets. This governance structure gives residents real control over their community.

  • Full continuum with 29+ years of operation

    Independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing all on campus. Voted Best Retirement Community in Silicon Valley three consecutive years by Mercury News readers.

  • Resort-caliber amenities and dining

    Multiple dining venues with farm-to-table seasonal menus, heated pool and hot tub, fitness center, putting green, bocce court, dog park, art studio, and a registered dietitian on staff.

  • Equity buy-in required

    As a Life Plan Community with equity ownership, there is a significant upfront buy-in cost in addition to monthly fees. This model is not for every family's financial situation.

  • Very large campus

    At 817 beds across 51 acres, this is one of the largest communities in the region. Families seeking a more intimate, boutique environment should consider smaller alternatives.
