Answer a few questions to get personalized results
Who are you searching for?

Filled with art, culture, and entertainment, Brooklyn has become New York City’s most populous borough and is the second most populous among seniors 65 and above, just behind Queens. Brooklyn is the geographical center of NYC, allowing seniors easy access to the other four boroughs. Seniors often prefer Brooklyn due to its residential feel and affordable senior living options. Our assisted living partners in Brooklyn are scattered throughout the borough with some waterfront properties by Sheepshead Bay.

In Brooklyn, assisted living is the most popular senior living option within A Place for Mom’s network of senior living communities. The average cost of assisted living in Brooklyn is approximately $7,978 per month, according to our proprietary data. Assisted living enables seniors to reside in a safe environment where they receive assistance with daily activities, personal care services, and meals. Additionally, residents benefit from a social environment filled with activities and amenities built to accommodate the changes that come with aging.
