How this estimate worksWithin 25% for 7 in 10 homes in testing

Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 14 small homes and similar homes within 15 miles publish, then adjusts for this home’s size, state care approvals, Medi-Cal waiver participation, years licensed and the area’s prices. In testing, the likely range held the real rate for 6 in 10 homes. This home’s own rate is not on file.

Only prices a home put out itself count: its own website, a listing it supplied, or a price Seniorly says the home confirmed. Prices a listing site shows without saying where they came from are left out.
Nearby homes are the nearest of the same size that publish a rate, widening from 3 to 40 miles until at least 8 do. The estimate starts from what they charge, then adjusts for this home’s size, state care approvals, Medi-Cal waiver participation, years licensed and the area’s prices.
Room, care-level, second-person and move-in lines come from what California homes publish on listing sites. Memory care uses Covelight’s researched premium over assisted living.
Totals add each line’s figure and combine the lines’ ranges as separate charges, because a home is rarely at the top, or the bottom, of every line at once.
We tested this estimate on 1,546 California homes that publish their own starting rate. It was within 10% of the real rate for 3 in 10 homes and within 25% for 7 in 10; the likely range held the real rate for 6 in 10 (September 12, 2026).

Avoid surprises on the billWhat changes the price, and what to ask

The care level
Some homes charge one all-inclusive rate. Others add levels or points as needs grow. Ask how the level is set, who decides, and what the next level costs.
What is billed separately
Medication management, incontinence supplies, transportation and a second person in the room are often extra. Ask for the list in writing.
Move-in costs
A one-time move-in fee or deposit is common. Ask what it covers and whether any of it comes back if the stay is short.
Increases
California requires at least 90 days’ written notice, with reasons, before a rate rises (Health & Safety Code §1569.655). A change in the resident’s care level is the section’s own exception and can be billed sooner.

Ask for the price

An estimate for planning, not a quote. A home sets the price after hearing about the care needed.

Daily life

Daily life here is not on file yet. Most small homes haven’t published it, and that says nothing about the home.

On 5/7/2025 LPA Tryon visited the home. The house burned on 2/3/2025, and water damage from the fire fighters destroyed everything in the house. Residents were moved partially to Alder Grove Senior Living, and partly to other facilities. At the moment, the house is gutted/torn apart. The plan is to tear down the house, and rebuild a new house on the footprint of the old house. The licensee is still working with the insurance company and so forth. At this time, there are obviously no residents or staff at the house. Licensee plans to keep the license and rebuild the house. The house will likely not be built and ready for occupancy for many months at this point. Exit interview conducted,the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, May 7, 2025

On 2/6/2025 LPA Tryon visited the licensee's private home, where 4 of the residents from Alder Grove Senior Living II are staying temporarily. LPA toured the house. The house has 4 bedrooms/2 bathrooms, a large kitchen with 2 refrigerators and plenty of cabinets/cupboards. There are cleaners under the sink in hall bathroom. Mr. Tan assured LPA that the handyman is coming this afternoon to place locks where needed such as under sink cabinets in bathrooms and kitchen, potentially hazardous items, etc. Bedrooms are spacious. 2 of the rooms currently have large beds, which will be replaced by smaller beds if the decision is made to apply for a license for this house, as the space is a little tight right now, but would be fine with smaller beds. There is a hot tub currently on the back patio, which Mr. Tan said will be removed if application is pursued. There is currently no water inside, and a cover over it. Also, the back yard slopes off at maybe a 45 degree angle at the back; a fence would need to be constructed There is plenty of food in the house, furnishings are appropriate, etc. Mr. Tan is meeting with the fire department this afternoon to have them do a pre-inspection of his house to see if it is feasible to convert it to a care home. LPA spoke with 2 verbal residents who were available. Both said they are doing well, staff is taking good care of them; the staff got them out of the care home quickly during the fire and it went well. They told me they are okay with the situation, and they wish to stay with Mr. Tan. Mr. Tan will contact CCL as soon as he learns what the fire department says; and with the decision to go forward with an application for this home or not.

The median is across the 6,916 licensed small board-and-care homes (6 or fewer beds) in the state record. The figures compared are the state’s totals, not the documents.

What does Alder Grove Senior Living II cost?

$4,900 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $4,000–$6,000. This home’s own rate is not on file. Ask: “What is the all-in monthly rate, and what would push it higher?”

Among 54 other homes of a similar licensed size across Sacramento County that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $3,500 to $5,000 a month, and the middle figure is $4,000 (n = 54 other homes publishing a starting rate).

Each of those is a home’s own published figure, gathered on its own date between September and October 2026 — not an average of ours, and not a survey. Similar size means small and mid-size homes counted together, and large communities counted on their own, because they are different markets.

A home outside the band is not overcharging or underpricing: a starting rate covers different things in different homes, which is the first thing to ask about.

The price is made in the phone call. Nothing here is a quote, an offer or a discount.

A starting rate is the room and the base care. California homes commonly bill care levels, medication management, supplies, transport and a second person in the room as extras. Many also charge a one-time fee at move-in. Ask for that list in writing before anything is signed.

Only prices a home put out itself count here: its own website, a listing it supplied, or a price a listing site says the home confirmed. Prices a site shows without saying where they came from are left out.

Does Alder Grove Senior Living II take Medi-Cal?

On Medi-Cal’s Assisted Living Waiver: this home is not on the DHCS participation list dated October 1, 2026. Ask the program about current options. The waiver pays for care services, not room and board.

The license is held by Alder Grove Senior Care Inc., per CDSS records as of October 26, 2026. See the homes licensed to Alder Grove Senior Care Inc. — at least 2 on the state roster.
