What Parkinson’s care costs in American Canyon
At the California minimum wage of $16.90 an hour (the May 2025 median aide wage, $16.50, is now below it), 20 hours of help a week comes to about $1,465 a month in wages, which is 18% of the $8,175 monthly median income of American Canyon households headed by someone 65 or older.
