Mountainside is one of Union County’s most exclusive boroughs , a small, affluent community of approximately 7,000 residents nestled against the Watchung Reservation, a 2,000-acre nature preserve offering hiking trails, scenic overlooks, Surprise Lake, and the Trailside Nature and Science Center. The borough’s quiet, tree-lined streets and spacious properties create a peaceful suburban environment that feels removed from the bustle of nearby Route 22 , yet the highway is just minutes away, along with Interstate 78 providing direct access to Newark Liberty International Airport, Manhattan, and points west. Mountainside Senior Community caters to discerning older adults who seek luxury finishes, high-end amenities, and an upscale lifestyle within a 55+ age-restricted setting. Neighboring Westfield’s downtown along East Broad Street offers fine dining, boutique shopping, and cultural events, while Summit’s charming downtown provides additional dining and retail options. Overlook Medical Center in Summit , part of Atlantic Health System , delivers Level II Trauma care, a nationally recognized neuroscience program, and a comprehensive stroke center approximately 8 minutes from Mountainside. The borough’s proximity to both Westfield and Summit means residents have convenient access to multiple medical practices, pharmacies, and specialists. As a 55+ luxury community, Mountainside Senior Community provides upscale residential living and premium amenities , but does not offer personal care services, home health aides, or medical monitoring. When residents develop needs for daily assistance with bathing, dressing, medication management, or fall prevention, a licensed home care agency fills the critical gap , allowing residents to age in place in one of Union County’s most desirable settings rather than relocating to assisted living.
