What to Consider About Assisted Living in New Market
Located in the Shenandoah Valley between the larger towns of Harrisonburg and Woodstock, New Market is a classic small American town surrounded by mountains and greenspace. The population of seniors over the age of 65 in New Market is over 27 percent of the total population and because of this there are 38 assisted living facilities in the area, spanning much of the Shenandoah Valley. All of these facilities are licensed and regulated by Virginia Department of Social Services to ensure they are following state regulations.
Benefits and Drawbacks of Assisted Living in New Market

- New Market has good air quality throughout the year, as there isn’t much urban pollution and the surrounding forests of the Appalachian Mountains keep the air clean. Pollen can sometimes be a bit of issue for those with allergies.
- The cost of living in New Market is just below the state median and slightly above the national average. Seniors should expect to pay slightly higher prices for health care services and miscellaneous goods, but groceries typically cost less than the national average.

- The New Market area has few facilities from which to choose in the event of a medical emergency or illness, with the nearest major hospital located in the nearby town of Winchester to the north.
