What to Consider About Assisted Living in Basking Ridge
Located in the Bernards Township, Basking Ridge is a charming, rural community with a rich history and a population of more than 27,000. Over 16% of its residents are aged 65 and older, and may be thinking about transitioning to an assisted living community.
In New Jersey, Department of Health and Senior Services licenses three types of assisted living services: assisted living residences (ALRs), comprehensive personal care homes (CPCHs) and assisted living programs (ALPs). There are 10 of these facilities available in Basking Ridge and surrounding neighborhoods.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Basking Ridge
- The cost of living in Basking Ridge is very high, which could be challenging for seniors on a fixed income. At 189.6, daily living expenses far exceed the U.S. national average of 100.
- Basking Ridge is a safe community with very low crime rates, which should offer seniors peace of mind. Measured on a scale to 100, violent crime and property crime are rated 9.5 and 13.3, respectively. These rates are much lower than the U.S. national averages of 22.7 and 35.4 in the respective categories.
- New Jersey is known for having cold winters. In Basking Ridge, temperatures can drop to a low of 19 degrees, with 24 inches of snowfall. However, seniors can enjoy the region's many outdoor activities in the warm summer weather.
- The Basking Ridge area has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Bernards Township Parks and Recreation Department. The organization offers programs and services for seniors, including a monthly calendar of shopping and leisure trips, as well as a senior wellness center.
- Somerset County's Division of Transportation provides a county shuttle service around eight fixed routes, as well as paratransit services for seniors aged 60 and older to pre-determined destinations, such as medical appointments, workshops and senior centers.
- Basking Ridge has few facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital located in Morristown.
