In terms of population density, Long Island has an impressive population of nearly eight million (i.e. 39% of New York State’s total population).

39 Forest Ave, Glen Cove, NY 11542Nassau and Suffolk county are recognized as having some of the most affluent communities in the state. Found predominantly along the coast, expensive island communities attract large numbers of tourists while the countryside features vineyards that are reachable by train. Suffolk county is three times the size of Nassau county, offering rural regions in addition to beaches, parks, museums, and theaters. Common entertainment destinations on the island include the Hamptons, historic Hollywood estates, and various lighthouses. Convenient transportation is a major feature of Long Island with trains and taxis that can take you nearly anywhere you need to go.

Forbes named Nassau county #2 in the Top Places to Grow Old in the United States. Not only do seniors over the age of 65 represent 15% of the county’s population, the median income for seniors is a reasonable $48,000 a year. The average cost of assisted living in New York is $5,000 a month, though the state offers several programs to defer costs (ex. the Managed Long Term Care Waiver and the Assisted Living Program). The western region has become known as the most ethnically and culturally diverse areas in the United States. Diversity allows socialization regardless of cultural preferences, which is reflected in the vast number of senior communities, teams, events, groups, and clubs found throughout the area.

Despite high costs and dense populations, Long Island is a highly sought out by retirees looking for access to natural beauty, cultural diversity, gorgeous beaches, and ease of transportation.
