Why we like it

Serra Highlands Senior Living is a 120-bed assisted living community set on a beautifully landscaped 5-acre campus in Daly City, just minutes from San Francisco and Bay Area attractions. The community offers assisted living, memory care, and short-term respite care with personalized care plans, chef-prepared dining, and a vibrant daily activity calendar.

The campus features small houses rather than a single large building, creating a more intimate neighborhood feel, along with a salon and spa, library, game room, coffee bar, and pet-friendly apartments.

  • Pet-friendly apartments

    Both cats and dogs are welcome in resident apartments, with breed and weight restrictions. One of the few large communities in the area with an explicit pet policy.

  • Short-term respite care available

    Offers respite care alongside standard assisted living — useful for families needing a temporary placement or trial period before committing.

  • 5-acre suburban campus

    Set on 5 acres in Daly City with landscaped outdoor spaces, including garden areas residents cite using regularly.

  • Inclusive monthly pricing

    The facility states monthly fees cover utilities, maintenance, dining, and amenity access — fewer add-on costs to negotiate at signing.

  • Serious safety concerns

    7 serious and 15 minor citations across 35 state inspections, with 8 verified complaints. Read the state's full inspection reports and press on what's been fixed before deciding.

  • 120-bed large-community scale

    At 120 beds this is a large facility. Staff-to-resident ratios matter more at this size — worth asking specifically about overnight and weekend coverage.

  • Pricing unverified

    The listed starting price of ~$4,105/month is unverified. The website describes transparent pricing but doesn't publish rates — confirm current figures and what triggers care-level surcharges.
