What to Consider About Assisted Living in Rockaway Park
The small community of Rockaway Park is located on the Rockaway Peninsula, New York, bordered by Jamaica Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. The Rockaways were once known as New York's playground, and today, seniors in the area can still stroll along the famous beaches. The population in Rockaway Beach and the adjacent neighborhoods is around 20,000 people, and 18% of residents are aged 65 and over.
There are 45 assisted living facilities offering accommodation to seniors in the area who are mostly independent but want some help with activities of daily living. In Rockaway Park, and all of New York, these facilities are licensed and monitored by the New York State Department of Health.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in Rockaway Park
- The Rockaway Park area is home to world-class medical facilities, including St. John's Episcopal Hospital, in the event of medical emergencies or illness.
- The Metropolitan Transportation Authority provides public transport to Rockaway Beach. Riders aged 65 and over are eligible for reduced fares. Seniors may also be able to use the Access-A-Ride Paratransit service that offers a shared-ride origin-to-destination and feeder services to eligible passengers.
- New York City, including Rockaway Park, is a member of the AARP Network of Age-Friendly Communities, meaning that its elected leadership “has made the commitment to actively work toward making their town, city or county a great place for people of all ages,” according to AARP.
- The State of the Air 2018 report awarded Queens County, including Rockaway Park, an A grade for 24-hour particle pollution. However, the county received a failing grade for ozone pollution, which could have a detrimental impact on the health of seniors with respiratory illnesses.
- Rockaway Park has an array of community resources for seniors, including the Jewish Association Serving the Aging, an organization that provides services to enrich and sustain the lives of aging residents as well as more than three senior centers.
- Seniors in Rockaway Park do not pay state income tax on income from Social Security and selected public pensions. In addition, there is a sizable deduction for taxpayers aged 60 and over on income received from retirement accounts and other pensions. New York's sales taxes are among the highest in the country, however many everyday expenses such as groceries, medications and selected clothing, are exempt.
Note: Data reported on this page was updated in 2019 and based on the latest 2018 figures.
