State With No Retirement Income: South Dakota

  • Percent of 65 and older population: 16.4%
  • Income Tax Range: None
  • Social Security: None
  • Inheritance and Estate Taxes: None
  • Median rent per month: $600
  • Utilities: $145
  • Meal at average restaurant: $11

South Dakota might not first come to mind as one of the best places to retire.

Yet, it was the top moving destination in 2016, with the highest percentage of people, including retirees, moving there than any other state, according to United Van Lines 40th Annual National Movers Study.

It’s one of the best places to retire for under $1,000 a month, and Aberdeen has the highest percentage of adults 65 years and older of any city on our list, as well as the cheapest median rent of any other city.

Aberdeen also boasts a senior center that provides recreation and support services for retirees. And it even offers plenty for outdoor enthusiasts, including hunting and fishing.

    You have to click on each page number and you’ll be taken to the next. It’s not a huge headline, but the names are there. You read, click on the next number and so on.

    Indiana does NOT tax SS benefits and neither does the Federal government IF that is your ONLY source of income. If you are employed in the state of Indiana, then you will be taxed on your employment income by both state and Federal tax.

    The EPA didn’t destroy anything. “Fair Market” conditions is what did US Steel in. We cannot compete with the Chinese steel on the open market. When you don’t give a crap about your employee’s lives and safety, you can have much lower overhead. You people who voted for the “businessmen” to run our democracy, are about to find out EXACTLY how little we all mean to a bunch of greedy f*cks like Musk, Bezos, etc. CONGRATS!
