What to Consider About Assisted Living in Cedar Grove

Originally started as a farming community along what was known as Horseneck Track, the township of Cedar Grove is a quiet community with more than 3,000 residents aged 65 and over. Cedar Grove has two assisted living facilities to accommodate these seniors, along with 25 more located in nearby areas. These facilities are officially designated as Assisted Living Residences, Comprehensive Personal Care Homes and Assisted Living Programs in Cedar Grove and throughout the state, all of which are licensed by New Jersey's Department of Health.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Cedar Grove

  • While Essex County, where Cedar Grove is located, gets a passing grade for annual particle pollution from the American Lung Association, the county gets a D for ozone pollution. High ozone days can be a serious health risk, so seniors might want to check local levels before venturing outside.
  • Cedar Grove gets warm summers and cold winters. In January, average low temperatures drop to 20 degrees, so seniors in the area may want to make sure they are clothed properly before going outside. Temperatures in summer reach an average July high of 85 degrees.
  • The overall cost of living in Cedar Grove is high compared to both the state and rest of the country. It's 68.5 points higher than the national average of 100 and 35.9 points higher than the New Jersey average of 132.6. This may make it difficult for seniors and their families to afford assisted living expenses in the township.
  • Several forms of retirement income are not subject to state taxes in New Jersey, including Social Security benefits, railroad retirement and military pensions. These policies may make it easier for some seniors in Cedar Grove to afford assisted living. State and federal government pensions are taxable.
  • Public transportation, with reduced fares for seniors, is available in Cedar Grove on NJ Transit System buses. The 11 bus provides service to Newark, and the 195 bus goes to the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Midtown Manhattan.
  • Cedar Grove has few facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital located in Wayne.
