The majority (3) are residential care homes with 6 beds or fewer, so if you're looking for something intimate where your parent isn't one of dozens of residents, you'll have options. There are also 2 larger communities with 50+ beds if you prefer structured activities, on-site dining, and more staff on hand.

It's on the pricier side. The average in Los Gatos is $5,290/mo, which is about 13% more than the LA County average. If budget is a concern, it's worth looking at neighboring cities too.
