What to Consider About Assisted Living in Norwood
Norwood, New Jersey lies just west of the Hudson River and less than three hours from New York City. Norwood lets seniors enjoy a quiet lifestyle away from the big city but is close enough to take the occasional day trip to explore the Big Apple. Over 21 percent of people living in Norwood are 65 or older and the area offers 64 assisted living facilities for the senior population to choose from.
Assisted living facilities provide 24-hour support to four or more seniors in a home-like setting. Services such as prepared meals, medication management and personal care are offered. The Department of Health and Human Services designate policies on these facilities.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Norwood
- The Norwood area is home to world-class medical facilities, including St. John’s Riverside Hospital in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- Seniors living in Norwood can bask in the 209 days of sunshine and warm summer highs of 85 degrees. Seniors with limited mobility may have slight difficulty getting around in the winter, with lows of 23 degrees and 26 inches of snowfall.
- Seniors living in Norwood could be adversely affected by the air quality here. The American Lung Association gave the Bergen County area a failing ozone score of F.
- The crime rate is low in Norwood. Violent crime is rated 16.1 out of 100 (one being the safest), compared to the U.S. average of 31.1. Likewise, property crime is rated at 12.4, which is much lower than the U.S. average of 38.1.
- Low budget seniors may find it difficult to afford quality care services and their daily needs due to the high cost of living. Norwood has a cost of living score of 178.3, which is 78.30 percent higher than the national average.
- While Norwood is a small borough, seniors can still explore the arts by visiting the Belskie Museum in nearby Closter. They can also take in the warm sun and enjoy long nature walks in the nearby Rockleigh Woods Sanctuary.
Paying for Assisted Living in Norwood
Average Monthly Costs
Cities in New Jersey
Assisted Living costs in Norwood start around $0 per month on average, while the nationwide average cost of assisted living is $4,000 per month, according to the latest figures from Genworth’s Cost of Care Survey.

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Norwood
The Medicaid Managed Long-Term Services and Supports (MLTSS) is the state’s Medicaid waiver that offers support with assisted living costs to low-budget seniors who qualify. There are no state-funded programs that provide aid for assisted living at this time.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in New Jersey page.
More Ways to Pay for Assisted Living

- Life Insurance Policy
- Long-Term Care Insurance
- Reverse Mortgage
