Norwich, a small town of 38,000 with approximately 6,500 seniors ages 65 and older, is located on the eastern side of Connecticut, less than an hour’s drive from the state’s capital. Seniors have access to the highly rated health care in Hartford, and there is one local area hospital as well. Several parks in the area give seniors access to walking trails, picnic areas and swimming, including Mohegan Park, which features a rose garden with hundreds of rose varieties on a 2-acre setting.
At the approximately 19 assisted living communities in the area, seniors can expect to pay an average of $5,700 each month, according to the Genworth 2020 Cost of Care Survey. Costing $600 less than the state average of $6,300, assisted living in Norwich may be a viable alternative for seniors looking to save on long-term care costs associated with other, larger cities.
Using data points from a combination of more than 100 public and private authoritative sources, SeniorScore provides seniors and their loved ones a method of analyzing an area for its senior-friendliness. With an average SeniorScore of 61, Norwich scores well below the state average of 75 and the national average score of 72. The city’s highest-scoring categories are Health and Safety and Recreation and Leisure.
With 33 senior living facilities and one local hospital, Norwich has a smaller number of options for health care, one factor in the lower Health and Safety score of 62. However, there are still a high number of Medicare-registered physicians seniors can choose from, and more than 50 pharmacies in the area as well. Crime rates are average to low, and seniors in Norwich also enjoy a greater-than-average life expectancy. The number of seniors is smaller here, but there is still much for the community of seniors to enjoy: four local parks and two malls, with a larger number of grocery stores, golf courses and health clubs.
The high level of rainfall, combined with the harsher winters, drove points down in General Quality of Life to a 53. At the same time, the air quality is good, the city isn’t densely populated and public schools have very high quality rankings. Connecticut’s high property taxes, in conjunction with high city sales taxes and very high care costs contribute to a score of 49 in Finances, as did the lack of tax advantages for seniors. Household incomes are higher, but just slightly, driving an overall cost of living which is high but not higher than the national average.
The SeniorScore™ is calculated based on over 100 variables, some of which are shown below. The final score is curved based on a linear curving method. For More info visit senioradvice.com/seniorscore.
