What does Legacy Senior Living 2 cost?
$5,650 a month to start is a Covelight estimate, likely $4,650–$6,950. This home’s own rate is not on file. Ask: “What is the all-in monthly rate, and what would push it higher?”
Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 17 small homes within 3 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.
Among 13 other homes of a similar licensed size in Huntington Beach that publish a starting rate, the middle half runs $4,000 to $6,000 a month, and the middle figure is $4,800 (n = 13 other homes publishing a starting rate).
Each of those is a home’s own published figure, gathered on its own date in September 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 Legacy Senior Living 2 take Medi-Cal?
On Medi-Cal’s Assisted Living Waiver: this home is not on the DHCS participation list dated September 23, 2026. Ask the program about current options. The waiver pays for care services, not room and board.
Who holds the license?
The license is held by Legacy Senior Living 2 LLC, per CDSS records as of September 13, 2026.
Is there a hospital nearby?
Memorialcare Orange Coast Medical Center is 1.2 miles away in a straight line, per the CDPH licensed-hospital list dated September 16, 2026. See licensed care homes near it.

How people payPrivate pay, Medi-Cal waiver, SSI/SSP, veterans, insurance
- Private payMost residents pay from savings, a home sale or family help. Ask for the rate and what it includes in writing.
- Medi-Cal Assisted Living WaiverThis home is not on the DHCS participation list dated September 23, 2026. Ask the program about current options. The waiver pays for care services, not room and board.
- SSI/SSPCalifornia’s 2026 standard is $1,626.07 a month; $1,444.07 of it goes to the home and $182 stays with the resident. Whether this home accepts it is not on file — ask.
- VeteransVA Aid & Attendance can add to a veteran’s or surviving spouse’s pension. Ask whether residents here have used it.
- Long-term care insuranceMost policies pay for licensed care homes. Ask what paperwork the home provides for claims.
- MedicareDoes not pay for room and board in a care home. It can still cover hospice or home-health visits inside one.
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 community 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.
- What is the full monthly cost for the room and care we need, and what does it include?
- What would the next care level cost, and who decides when it changes?
- What is billed separately, and is there a one-time fee or deposit at move-in?
- Is any private-pay period required before another payment program can begin?
How this estimate worksWithin 25% for 7 in 10 homes in testing
Covelight’s estimate starts from the rates 17 small homes within 3 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.
17 homes like this within 3 miles publish starting rates mostly between $3,950–$6,000.
- 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).

Aug 12, 2026Complaint investigation reportSubstantiated
Allegation investigated: Resident was issued an unlawful eviction. Facility did not meet reporting requirements.
On August 12, 2026 at 10:30 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Edward Kim conducted a subsequent complaint visit to deliver findings at the above facility for the above allegations. LPA Kim met with Administrator (ADMIN) Thi Nhu Mai Do and explained the purpose of the visit. During the investigation, LPA Kim conducted a physical plant tour inside and outside of the facility with ADMIN Do. LPA Kim reviewed R1’s records, which include: Admission Agreement, Identification and Emergency Information, Physician's Report, Needs and Services Plans, and other pertinent records. LPA obtained resident roster, staff roster, and other pertinent records. LPA Kim conducted interviews with one (1) witness interview and two (2) staff interviews. The investigation revealed the following: Continued on LIC9099C Substantiated Allegation: Resident was issued an unlawful eviction It is alleged that the facility issued an unlawful eviction notice. Based on record review, the Admission Agreement stated that the facility can evict a resident for the Inability of the licensee to meet the resident's needs after admission. The Admission Agreement stated based upon a reassessment of the resident's needs conducted pursuant to applicable regulations, the licensee/administrator of the facility and the person who performs the assessment may determine that the facility is not appropriate for the resident. An email sent from Administrator Do to R1's Responsible Party dated October 12, 2025, giving a 30 day notice to leave the premises for the increase in the need for care and domestic disturbances. The facility did not notify CCLD about the 30-day notice in writing within five days. Also, the email does not meet the requirement as an eviction notice because after admission the facility did not conduct a reappraisal to indicate a new or updated care plan was made. As of August 12, 2026, there was no new reappraisal and the facility only has Appraisal Needs and Services Plan dated March 3, 2025, which lists R1’s needs with arthritis from the hip and knee, anxiety concerns, no concerns with continence needs, no special medication, and additional services are needed. R1’s Physician’s Report dated February 21, 2025, primary diagnosis is on hypertension, depression, dementia, and there are concerns with their mental condition in regard to confusion. Based on interviews conducted two out of three staff denied the allegation. One out of three staff could not confirm or deny the allegation. S1 and S2 stated that R1 was evicted from the facility due to increased confusion and domestic disturbances. S1 stated that a new reappraisal was not assessed prior to R1 leaving the facility. S1 stated they did not follow the eviction procedures as stated in the admission agreement for resident who needed a higher need of care prior to leaving the facility. Based on the information gathered, there is sufficient evidence to corroborate the above allegation. The facility did not follow admission agreement eviction procedures to reassess R1 to determine if R1 was not appropriate for the facility. S1 stated they did not notify Licensing about the eviction or conduct a reassessment prior to R1 leaving the facility Continued on LIC9099C Allegation: Facility did not meet reporting requirements It is alleged, the facility is also not reporting incidents regarding the presence of police at the facility. Based on record review, Police Report P25041740 dated May 9, 2025, R1’s visitor attempted to remove R1 from the facility. Police Report P25044209 dated May 16, 2025, at 10:42 AM, where R1’s visitor attempted to visit R1. R1 clearly stated that they did want the visitor there and doesn’t want the visitor at the location. Visitor refused to leave the premises. On October 21, 2025, LPA Kim reviewed the Serious Incident Report Log Portal and did not observe any incidents reported by the facility for May 9, 2025, and May 16, 2025. The portal indicated no incidents from the facility. On October 22, 2025, LPA Kim received incident reports from the facility that indicated that they were faxed written on the LIC624. As of August 12, 2026, LPA Kim did not observe any of the LIC624 on record that were provided through email. The facility could not provide proof that faxes were sent on the dates indicated on the LIC624. Based on interviews conducted, two out of three staff denied the allegation. One out of three staff could not confirm or deny the allegation. S2 stated that S3 sent out the serious incident reports through fax to the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) Orange County Regional Office. S1 stated that S3 would mark on the LIC624 the dates the Incident Reports were sent through fax. S1 stated that they trusted and believed that S2 sent the incident reports through fax, but never checked to follow through on it. Based on the information gathered, there is sufficient evidence to corroborate the above allegation. The facility had filled out incident reports, and wrote on the reports they faxed in the reports, but there is no proof that they were sent through fax and/or email. Based on information gathered through observation, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore, the allegations Resident was issued an unlawful eviction and Facility did not meet reporting requirements. were found to be SUBSTANTIATED. Violations are being cited per California Code of Regulations Title 22, Division 6 Chapter 8. An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report, and the appeal rights were provided to Administrator Thi Nhu Mai Do.the state’s words, verbatim · CDSS document, Aug 12, 2026 · control 22-AS-20251016083056

Life here
Rooms, meals, the rhythm of a day, faith and language, pets and house rules — as the home describes them. Tap any detail for its source and date; nothing here is graded.
The home has not described daily life anywhere we have reviewed yet — that is the case for most small homes, and it says nothing about the home. These questions fill in the picture; keep the ones that matter to you.
Before you call
Ask every home the same questions — the state’s record does not answer these. Keep the ones that matter and they travel with your saved homes.
- What is included in the monthly rate, and what costs extra?
- Who is awake overnight, and how do residents ask for help?
- Which rooms does the non-ambulatory approval cover, and what transfer support is provided?
- What could change whether someone can stay here?
- Can we see a bedroom and share a meal during a visit?
