New Jersey's retirement capital — home to some of the nation's largest planned senior communities. Private-pay home care across Toms River, Brick, Lakewood, Barnegat, and dozens of active adult communities throughout Ocean County.
Ocean County is New Jersey's retirement capital — a county with one of the highest proportions of residents aged 65 and older in the eastern United States. Toms River, Brick, and Manchester are not just communities with older residents; they are communities built around and for older residents, with planned retirement developments, active adult complexes, and senior services infrastructure unmatched elsewhere in the state.
Leisure Village and Holiday City in Toms River are among New Jersey's largest planned retirement communities. Thousands of residents in these developments — mostly in their 70s and 80s — are managing the transition from fully independent living to needing some support. Private-pay home care fits naturally into these communities: residents can stay in their own homes, maintaining their social networks and daily routines, while receiving targeted support that addresses specific needs.
Manchester Township, south of Toms River, is one of New Jersey's fastest-growing municipalities — driven entirely by new active adult and senior housing development. The Crestwood Village communities, Whiting, and other Manchester developments have created concentrated demand for in-home care that providers in Ocean County have developed significant capacity to meet.
Brick Township is Ocean County's second-largest municipality and a major home care market in its own right. Its diverse neighborhoods range from established bay-front communities to modern planned developments. Families in Brick frequently manage care for parents who moved there from North Jersey or New York City specifically to retire — and who have no desire to leave the community they chose.
Barnegat Township and the southern Ocean County communities along the Barnegat Bay have strong cultures of place attachment. Seniors here are on or near the water, and the goal is always to stay there. Live-in care and comprehensive in-home support are widely used.
