What to Consider About Assisted Living in East Norriton

East Norriton is a small town of about 13,500 residents. It's located just outside of Philadelphia along the Schuylkill River. More than 25% of East Norriton's population is made up of senior citizens aged 65 or older. To care for the area's senior population, there are two assisted living facilities in East Norriton, as well as an additional 48 located nearby in surrounding towns and cities. 

In Pennsylvania, assisted living facilities are officially known as Assisted Living Residences (ALRs). ALRs in Pennsylvania are subject to a strict set of rules that govern both the type of care and the accommodations that must be provided to residents. The Pennsylvania Department of Human Services - Office of Long-Term Living is responsible for regulating and monitoring the operation of all ALRs in the state. 

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in East Norriton

  • The East Norriton area is home to world-class medical facilities, including Suburban Community Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness. 
  • East Norriton and its surrounding areas are served by the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transit Authority, which provides safe transportation throughout Montgomery County and offers reduced fares for senior citizens. 
  • The cost of living in East Norriton is 18.7% higher than the national average, which may affect the cost of assisted living and present complications for seniors on tight budgets. 
  • East Norriton is subject to high precipitation levels. Throughout the year, the town sees an average of 47 inches of rain and 17 inches of snow. While some seniors may enjoy the seasonal weather, those who enjoy spending plenty of time outdoors may want to consider assisted living options in other regions.
  • Crime rates in East Norriton are below the national average. The town has 6.3% fewer property crimes and 2.8% less than in the average U.S. city. While seniors may feel safe knowing that, they may still wish to discuss security while touring ALRs. 
  • The air quality in Montgomery County has been given a failing grade by the American Lung Association, which means it may put residents' health at risk, in particular, seniors and those with respiratory or cardiovascular illnesses.
