The Woodlands, Texas

Average home list price: $379,582
Percentage of residents aged 60 and up: 13.5%

This beautiful location is more of a Houston suburb rather than a town, but it’s just as worthy of all the others on our list. It has a population of about 100,000 and is a very well-kept secret among retirees.

The Woodlands delivers outstanding housing opportunities at a low cost of living. The average rent is about $1,100, and the district has a moderate home value of roughly $379,582.

This small retirement town also has a very low crime rate, and you’ll enjoy the lovely warm weather all year round. And the best part? The town’s close proximity to Houston means that quality health care will be just a short drive away!
