Assisted Living in New York, NY

New York City is the most populous city in the United States, housing a population of more than 8 million, 14.1% of which are seniors aged 65 and older. Known as the Big Apple, NYC is a hub for aspiring actors, artists, comedians, entrepreneurs and everyday people who enjoy faster-paced city living. Like New Yorkers themselves, the climate varies; summers can be warm and muggy, and winters can be cold and windy. However, the city has attractions fit for any type of condition, from guided tours of the historic Statue of Liberty and Central Park to awe-inspiring views from the One World Observatory and Empire State Building.

Assisted living focuses on personal assistance and supervision and is considered nonmedical. Seniors who frequently need help with daily activities are generally suited to assisted living, as it provides 24/7 availability of care. According to Genworth’s 2021 Cost of Care Survey, seniors in New York pay $5,750 per month for assisted living care. This is significantly higher than average for the state and nation overall.

This guide further explores the cost of care in the city and wider New York region. Financial assistance programs and useful local resources are also included.
