In Queens, New York, seniors have access to local offices and organizations that may help them obtain financial assistance for senior care, including:
Queens is not car dependent, meaning seniors can expect to rely on public transportation. Transit options in Queens include MTA (bus or subway), Lyft, and Uber. Seniors may receive fare discounts. Queens has somewhat limited biking infrastructure and is walkable.
Queens offers several health care providers for seniors wanting to be proactive about their health or for seniors seeking treatment for chronic conditions. The area has few hospitals, including Glen Falls Hospital and Saratoga Hospital.
Vibrant and unique, Queens is known as a patchwork of neighborhoods where residents can enjoy a slower pace of life without compromising on a culturally rich environment. Residents can catch a New York Mets game at Citi Field, feel the sand between their toes along The Rockaways, or sit back and watch the sun set behind the Manhattan skyline in the Gantry Plaza State Park. Seniors can benefit from discounted rates at the Queens Botanical Garden, New York Hall of Science, and the Museum of the Moving Image, among many other attractions.
