9 Amazing Small Towns to Retire In

Burlington, Vt. 

There’s a small town on the shores of Lake Champlain that will offer you a picturesque setting if you’re a tree-hugging type-of retiree. There are many options for outdoor recreation, as you could go hiking or biking paths for miles, and there are also beaches for you to swim in close proximity.

When it’s sunny outside, you can go kayaking or even paddle boarding. There’s an eco-friendly vibe that surrounds the town, from the businesses that are bolstering the city’s economy, like household-products maker Seventh Generation, to the beloved local food movement that feeds the whole neighborhood.

However, being so green might cost you a bit, because, in Burlington, the taxes and living costs aren’t exactly low. The median home value might be $206,000 in the Green Mountain State, but in comparison with the median of $229,000 for the U.S., in Burlington, it easily climbs up to $326,500.

    Every single one of these places is way too expensive to live for retirees, except possibly West Virginia, but I may be wrong! Do some research and it’ll tell you to stay away from those states as retirees!! The Northeast is not where retirees want to be! Connecticut? Are you serious?? How old is the journalist writing this piece…25??

    Currently a lifelong resident of Erie Pa. Great place to live and I do it for less than $1500. a month. Winters are much milder and summer, spring, and fall is much warmer. It has a beautiful lake and forests. Surprised that it isn’t listed for one of the most reasonable?
