10 Worst States to Live on Social Security Check Alone

#1 Alaska

Alaska includes some of the most secluded regions of the country, making it an unappealing place to retire for those who wish to stay in touch with their family and friends, as well as those in poor health.

Health care and housing are both pricey, despite the fact that you will pay no state income tax or sales tax. Aside from the tax relief, there’s not much to look forward to, as crime rates are high and life quality is low.

Furthermore, Alaska has the second-lowest number of residents aged 65 and up, which implies your social life may suffer in your senior years as well.

Alaska’s isolated and import-dependent lifestyle is notoriously pricey. However, housing has little significance. The state’s average property worth is roughly $311,000, compared to over $326,000 nationally.
