Dear Ms. Anderson:
Together with this letter, Assisted Living Concepts, Inc.

Amendment No. 3 is marked to show changes from Amendment No. 2 to the initial filing on Form 10 (“Amendment No. 2”) and reflects revisions made in response to the comments of the staff (the “Staff”) of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) that were verbally conveyed to the Company. The Staff’s comments are highlighted in bold below followed by the Company’s responses.
Amendment No. 1 to Form 10
