6. New Hampshire
If you are planning to move to New Hampshire, you must know that this is one of the states most loved by retirees. Why? Because of the lack of a personal income tax, This particular state receives the highest marks when it comes to healthcare options, and residents actually enjoy a high quality of life.
In case you didn’t know, the biggest perks of retiring in this state are a variety of mountain resorts and a lot of seacoast views that are amazing, especially if you are a nature lover. And of course, the breathtaking ice castles, tunnels, and a lot of caves made out of ice.

Note: South Carolina does NOT tax retirement income such as Social Security or Military Retirement. That being said – property taxes have been climbing at an astronomical rate and home insurance has almost doubled in the last year. I may have to sell my house within the next 6 months and start renting.
Heaven knows it’s run but Communists now, but being 74 and having been here since1963, I’m not leaving California (the weather, the natural beauty, redwoods anyone?) no matter what ever you champion!
I was surprised to not see Texas listed. It has a low cost of living. I moved here because of marriage, but I miss the West Coast. I agree with others that the Northwest offers the best lifestyle, temperate climate and accommodating political atmosphere. It may not be the cheapest place to settle but it isn’t expensive either, and healthcare is great!
Tucson AZ. I am relatively new here and I’m retired and loving it. I’m in my very early 60’s.
I love most things about living here. This winter was wonderful, it rained a few times and snowed once, but of course didn’t accumulate. Yeah. It gets hot in the summer, dry air, not humid like New Hampshire, my home town State.
I’m happy living here. I made the right choice, I love my house and my 2 acres of land, love living on the outskirts on a dirt road, the people are nice, doctor’s are awesome, my 2 dogs are healthier and happier, shopping is great, taxes suck tho lol, not used to taxes on just about everything, so many places to go omg, beautiful scenery, I can go on.
If you’ve never lived here or never visited AZ, don’t comment negative things, because you’re clueless. I’m happier and extremely content living here after living in New Hampshire all my life, I should of moved here years ago.
When you choose a location, be very aware of the crime rate.
