Sober Living Homes in Los Angeles
, California
Los Angeles has one of the largest and most varied sober living communities in the country. From structured young adult houses on the Westside to long-running nonprofit residences in the Valley and South Bay, the city offers recovery housing at nearly every price point and level of structure. Most homes here are peer-supported residences: residents keep jobs or attend school, follow house rules like curfews and drug testing, and build recovery routines together. Many LA homes coordinate with outside outpatient providers, which makes the city a common next step after treatment. Use the filters below to narrow homes by gender, house policy, budget, and certification, and always contact a home directly to confirm availability and current pricing.

About sober living in Los Angeles
California does not license sober living homes the way it licenses treatment facilities. Homes that provide only housing and peer support are generally considered residential uses and are not overseen by the Department of Health Care Services. Voluntary certification exists through the California Consortium of Addiction Programs and Professionals (CCAPP), a NARR affiliate, and through networks like the Sober Living Network. When a listing mentions a state license, it usually means an affiliated treatment program is licensed, not the housing itself. Ask any home about certification, house rules, refund policies, and how it handles relapses before moving in.
Frequently asked questions
How much does sober living cost in Los Angeles?
Most Los Angeles sober living homes charge monthly rent that varies widely by neighborhood and level of structure, from modest shared rooms to private rooms in upscale Westside houses. Nearly all homes in this directory ask you to contact them for current pricing. Ask what is included, such as utilities, food, drug testing, and case management, and whether a deposit is required.
Are sober living homes in Los Angeles licensed?
California does not license sober living homes that provide only housing and peer support. Some homes pursue voluntary certification through CCAPP, the state NARR affiliate, or belong to networks like the Sober Living Network. Ask each home directly about certification and house standards.
What is the difference between sober living and rehab in LA?
Rehab, or licensed treatment, provides clinical care such as detox, therapy, and medical oversight. Sober living homes are non-clinical residences where people in recovery live together under shared house rules. Many LA homes coordinate with outside treatment providers, but the home itself is housing, not treatment.
Which LA neighborhoods have the most sober living homes?
The Westside, including Mar Vista, West LA, and Venice, has a dense cluster of structured homes. The San Fernando Valley, including Van Nuys, North Hollywood, and Woodland Hills, offers more affordable options, and the South Bay has several long-running nonprofit residences.
Sober living homes are not treatment facilities
Listings on this page describe non-clinical, peer-supported recovery housing. If you or someone you love needs medical detox or clinical care, contact a licensed provider. The SAMHSA National Helpline at 1-800-662-4357 is a free, confidential resource available 24 hours a day.
