Why we like it

Palms Retirement Center is a 144-bed assisted living community in Fullerton, located in northern Orange County. It's a mid-sized community in a well-established residential area with convenient access to shops and medical facilities along Harbor Boulevard.

  • Established North OC location

    Fullerton offers a suburban setting with good access to hospitals, shopping, and dining — practical for both residents and visiting families.

  • Mid-sized community

    At 144 beds, large enough to offer varied programming and staffing coverage, but not so large that residents get lost in the crowd.

  • Competitive pricing for Orange County

    Positioned at a lower price point relative to many Orange County communities, which may make it accessible to families on a tighter budget.

  • Below-average safety record

    Holds a 4.2 FYI Safety Score, which is well below the state average. Families should review the inspection history carefully and ask management directly about steps taken to address cited issues.

  • Due diligence strongly recommended

    With a safety score this low, an in-person visit and conversation with current resident families is especially important before making a decision.
