Indianapolis, Indiana

Looking at the well-known speedway events or the abundance of jazz and blues concerts, it’s not far-fetched to think that Indianapolis would be an ideal place for you to retire. But unfortunately, that’s just not the case.

Even though this city is the 15th most populated city in the United States of America, it has very high offense rates, making it one of the worst cities you could possibly live in. Also, there aren’t that many activities for seniors to do in this city, and its healthcare clinics are rated way below average.

Furthermore, Indiana is considered to be one of the worst water-polluting states.

… It’s also right in the middle of Tornado Alley!

    Move to Michigan. Seniors have a guarantee that the state won’t raise property taxes over a certain percentage regardless of the official rate.

    Any party who is OK with killing babies and old people should tell you who cares about you. If you vote for DEMONCRATS, you are nuts

    I have lived in Washington State for decades and would call it the worst pace to retire to because of the ever growing taxes. We bought a modest 1300 sq ft home that was a total fixer upper and over the last 15 years made improvements to retire to and moved from the crime ridden west coast to eastern Washington five years ago when we retired and last year year the state took our 30 year old modest forever home valued at $358,000 and re assessed it at $617,000 at the end of last year. Thats a $259,000 jump in one year and the taxes that were semi affordable will almost double.
    Bing on a fixed income will make it hard to do anything but pay taxes. I honestly can’t think of anything that isn’t taxed and there are more taxes on the way. we are looking to move to Idaho at this point. We were basically taxed out of our home on the west side we lived in for 30years and they are doing the same thing to us again. Plus the state is billions or dollars in debt even after raising taxes and adding taxes. Think real hard before moving to Washington State unless you have a lot of money to burn.
