When it comes to changing addresses, the choices for seniors are overwhelming, but as a first step toward that decision, there's a new study on senior living communities that can help.

U.S. News and World Report recently released its annual evaluation of these communities, including 306 in New Jersey.

In 2023, the publication analyzed survey data from more than 250,000 residents and their family members at nearly 4,000 senior living communities. Among them, 67 rated among the best in New Jersey, based on factors such as resident satisfaction, safety, value, caregiving and other markers.
