Why are they so great?
Before we start looking into why these are great places to retire, we will explain a bit more about why you should consider them if you’re in a position where you’re short on retirement savings. And it comes down to one word: affordability! If you think about it, people are thinking about this whether or not they think they will be in trouble due to their savings; we all like to be sure we’re not losing money or paying more than we should be!
All these cities are known for having an average home price of under $200,000, which makes relocating while you’re selling your old house an easy task, and it can also leave you with money to spare! Moreover, renting is also on the affordable side if you have to do it.
The best selling point about them, however, is the fact that, excluding one city in New Mexico and two in West Virginia, the state will not tax you on your Social Security benefits! This is amazing news for most retirees, as you can be sure and plan ahead for how you will split your money up for that month!
I live in Egypt and love it-housing and food are affordable, health care is good and affordable. Also the people are very nice. If you live in Cairo, there is a large expat community although I prefer living among the locals.
In Nebraska the home of the corn single mom, tattooed, supper plus sized, rusty mini van wheelen, welfare loven whoes we are taxed to support these loosers. Yes, the corn people let the crooks & murders & rapest out of jail so we get to live in fere for the children of the corn.
I spent 2 weeks on Negros Island and loved it! Much cooler than Manila for example and cleaner.
I could never live in a hot and humid state. I am active and not a chair rocker don’t want to live in an air conditioned box. Cold weather states with snow are the only ones I would ever concider since again I am active with fall and winter activities. Also could not live in the city, love rural living.
Central WA State, Moses Lake great place to live, growing but safely. 26,000 for now. People friendly, willing to help others, many of all ages, races, ethnic groups living here. No one has a superior attitude. Sales tax is all for WA State. No income tax and each time it is proposed, voters shut it down.
5 hr drive to the Pacific Ocean beaches, 2 hrs drive east to Spokane. 300+ days of sunshine. Winter snow measured in inches, usual is 3″. Hot Summers, but 90s average. Dry climate. Most storms pass on by and no major storms.
