Why we like it

Pacific Grove Senior Living is a 150-bed assisted living community in Pacific Grove, on the Monterey Peninsula. The large community sits in one of California's most scenic coastal towns, known for its Victorian homes and proximity to the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

However, the facility's inspection history raises serious concerns that families need to investigate thoroughly before considering placement.

  • Monterey Peninsula location

    Pacific Grove is one of the most beautiful small towns on the California coast, with ocean views, walking paths, and a mild marine climate.

  • Large community scale

    At 150 beds, the community can support extensive programming, multiple care levels, and round-the-clock staffing.

  • Alarming safety record

    A safety score of 1.8 is among the lowest in the state, indicating a severe and persistent pattern of inspection citations and complaints. This demands serious scrutiny.

  • Request full inspection records

    With a score this low, families should request the complete inspection history from the state and ask management to explain each finding in detail.

  • Consider alternatives first

    The Monterey Peninsula has other assisted living options. Given this safety record, families should compare thoroughly before committing.
