Retirement Homes in Newcastle
Those that prefer a quiet small town atmosphere will enjoy retiring in Newcastle, Ontario. Newcastle residents tend to prefer home care but have been making the transition towards retirement homes in recent years. The village is located on the shores of Lake Ontario between Toronto and Oshawa in a secluded pocket of land free from mass industrialization. Newcastle is surrounded by farmland, meaning retirees and residents enjoy fresh produce which are then turned into homemade treats by the town’s many mom and pop style restaurants. Newcastle is also home to a number of historic churches that retiree’s enjoy visiting for their architectural beauty regardless of their religion. The city’s golf course is one of the best ranked in the area and is considered very senior friendly. Though secluded Newcastle is far from isolated, located near the Trans Canada Highway (highway 401) retirees have little issue visiting family and friends in nearby cities or simply traveling to explore the region. Besides retirement homes, the city has plenty of long term care options as well as a solid home care infrastructure.
Retirement Homes in Bowmanville

Retirement Homes in Oshawa
Like Bowmanville, retiring in Oshawa is seen as a compromise between rural and urban lifestyles. The city’s prominent auto/mobile manufacturing industry gives it an industrial reputation that sometimes overshadows its country scenery. Oshawa is home to the largest hospital in the region, Lakeridge Health Oshawa, as well as The R.S. McLaughlin Durham Regional Cancer Centre. These facilities give Oshawa an impressive long term care and assisted living infrastructure for a city its size.

While seniors rave about the city’s new parks and walking trails regardless of their living situation.
Retirement Homes in Trenton
Retirement care in Trenton can feel like a vacation that lasts for decades. As the entry point to the Trent-Severn Waterway and largest municipality in Quinte West, Trenton is the rare tourist city that can thrive economically without feeling cluttered. Trenton Retirement home residents rave about the city’s recreational facilities which include walking trails, curling rinks, dog parks, and golf courses. Trenton is a popular destination for sport fishing, known to boast impressive scores of walleye, bass, pike, perch, and mudcat with seasonal opportunities to catch salmon and rainbow trout. This attracts seniors looking for home care and assisted living in equal numbers.
