More about Penn Mar Healthcare Center
El Monte is a commuter-oriented city in the San Gabriel Valley. Downtown Los Angeles is less than 15 miles away, and Metrolink rail is cited as making that trip easier. The city is about 60 percent renters, and the largest age group is 25 to 34. Streets are described as flatter and walkable, with modern condos and a Mountainview area that looks toward the San Gabriel mountains. North El Monte next door is a smaller, higher-priced residential pocket with an average commute of about 29 minutes. Local scores put drivability at 90/100, public transit at 80/100, and walkability and bikeability at 60/100. If you are relocating, California is not a compact-license state, so you need a California license to work. The state uses a graduated income tax with the highest brackets in the United States. Guides describe El Monte as a cost-effective commuter city with outdoor access at Santa Fe Dam Recreation Area and the Angeles National Forest to the north — close to downtown energy without living in the thick of it.
