What to Consider About Assisted Living in Oyster Bay

Oyster Bay, which is a town in Nassau County on Long Island, is located within the New York metropolitan area just 30 miles from Manhattan. The community is the summer home of Teddy Roosevelt and has a population of over 300,000, with 17 percent over the age 65. These seniors are served by one assisted living facility in town and 35 in the surrounding areas. The State of New York Department of Health regulates these communities and defines them as adult care facilities that provide non-medical room and board for seniors.

Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Oyster Bay

  • The cost of living in Oyster Bay is 90.4 percent higher than the U.S. average. This may affect seniors on a tight budget. While most of this is due to housing, transportation costs also come in well above average. Grocery and health care costs are slightly below national medians. 
  • Like the rest of the New York metropolitan area, Oyster Bay has a seasonal climate with warm, humid summers and very cold, windy winters. Seniors will enjoy mild summers when average temperatures can reach highs of 83 degrees Fahrenheit in July, and brisk winters with lows near 24 degrees in January. Snowfall is around 23 inches per year and rainfall is above average at 48 inches annually.  
  • Seniors in Oyster Bay can make the most of their retirement income since New York does not tax social security benefits. Private pensions and retirement accounts are also deductible.  
  • Seniors who don’t drive may have difficulty getting around Oyster Bay, as there is no public bus service. Connections to New York City are available through the Long Island Railroad. The Life Enrichment Center at Oyster Bay has an Elderly Transportation Service to help seniors get to medical and social appointments.  
  • Seniors can feel safe living in Oyster Bay, as the crime here is relatively low. Violent and property crimes scored 26.3 and 24.7 out of 100, with 100 representing high crime.  
  • Oyster Bay has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Senior Citizens Services Division, an organization that provides seniors with activities, day trips, classes and help in finding relevant programs and services, as well as one senior center.

Paying for Assisted Living in Oyster Bay
