What to Consider About Assisted Living in Jersey City
Jersey City, one of oldest cities in New Jersey, is located on the scenic Hudson River directly across from lower Manhattan. Around 9.7 percent of the population are seniors and there are over 20 assisted living facilities (ALFs) to accommodate them in the Jersey city area, with one facility within city limits. The New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services is responsible for licensing ALFs in Jersey City and elsewhere in the state and defines them as either assisted living residences (ALRs), comprehensive personal care homes (CPCHs) and assisted living programs (ALPs).
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Jersey City
-
Air quality is good with a rating of 34 out of 100, lower than the U.S. average of 58. The city fares better than the surrounding areas in Hudson County which receives an F grade from the American Lung Association.
- The weather in Jersey City varies by season with high temperatures in the summer reaching around 83 degrees Fahrenheit and lows in the 30s during winter. On average, the city gets 48 inches of rain a year, above the U.S. average of 39, and is comparable to the U.S. average of 26 inches of snow per year.
- Jersey City’s violent crime rate is fairly high. The city scored a 61.9 out of 100 compared to the national average of 31.1. Property crime fared better at 33.9, below the U.S. average of 38.1.
- Along with the rest of the New York metro area, cost of living in Jersey City is high, exceeding the U.S. average by 33.3 percent. This is predominantly due to housing while transportation, groceries and health care costs are only slightly above national averages.
- Seniors have access to plenty of transportation options in Jersey City including the PATH train, which has stops throughout parts of Jersey and Manhattan, and the NJ transit buses and trains, all of which have reduced fares for seniors.
- Jersey City has an array of community resources for seniors through the Division of Senior Affairs, an organization that provides assistance to seniors looking for services such as transportation, social services and recreational events, as well as four senior centers.
