New York State’s variety of lifestyle options makes it an ideal retirement destination. While the hustle and bustle of New York City may be the first thing that comes to mind, the Empire State has much more to offer. From the beaches of Long Island, to Niagara Falls and the Finger Lakes out west, to the Catskill and Adirondack Mountains in the north, New York is filled with natural wonders and smaller, quieter towns.
In New York, the median monthly cost of a senior apartment is about $1,100. A Place for Mom’s Senior Living Advisors can provide you with a list of senior apartment communities in New York to help you find one that fits your needs and budget.

My mother is really enjoying her time here at this community, It is a wonderful place. Everyone has been very helpful, and polite. The community is very well maintained. They do a great job keeping everything nice, and well-kept. The owner has been very accommodating, kind. There is a lovely community room, where the residents can go to participate in some activities. Everything has worked out very well, and I would definitely recommend this community.
Read moreMom likes living in this independent community. Her apartment is spacious enough for her she is quite comfortable. She prefers to cook for herself which is working out since they offer no meals. The staff is friendly and kind especially the maintenance person but the office staff doesn't always seem to be around they have limited hours. The residents are friendly and look out for each other. There is plenty of parking for residents and visitors. The main reason we picked this option was mostly the location it is very close to the family in case of an emergency.
Read moreIt's a very safe and secure community and it is very quiet. I would definitely recommend this community to others. There is a lot to do around the community but it is located in heavily trafficked area.
