About

Living Out is an independent-living apartment community in Palm Springs for active LGBTQIA+ adults aged 55 and over, and their allies. It is a market-rate community rather than an affordable one, and it is designed around the idea that residents should not have to edit themselves to feel comfortable where they live.

Residences run from roughly 1,098 to 1,831 square feet, finished to condominium standard, with weekly apartment cleaning included. This is independent living only: there is no assisted living, memory care or skilled nursing on site, so residents who later need daily personal care arrange it privately or move.

The amenity list is unusually extensive for a community of this size. It includes the Alice B. Restaurant, Gertie's Salon and Bar, a fitness center, a swimming pool and spa, a fenced dog park, a bocce ball court, a putting green, a screening room and a desert oasis garden area. Hair, manicure, pedicure and massage services are available on site, and a full-time activities director coordinates social events and outings.

The community publishes pricing as starting at under $5,000 a month and reported a small number of remaining residences at the time of our review. Both figures move, so confirm current pricing and availability directly.

Questions to ask

8 things worth asking before you decide, chosen because the public record does not answer them. A blank means nobody has published the answer, not that the answer is bad.

  • Can a same-sex couple share a room or an apartment, on the same terms as any other couple, at every level of care you offer?
  • Who counts as family for visiting, for medical updates and for decisions, if the person closest to me is not a relative or a spouse?
  • Do you have a written nondiscrimination policy that names sexual orientation and gender identity? Can I have a copy?
