Top 8 Worst Cities For Retirement

Jersey City, New Jersey

Price can be a significant limiting factor if you’ve been thinking about Jersey City as a place for living out your retirement. In fact, the cost of living in the state tends to be ABOVE your national average.

This is one of those “worst cities” that doesn’t truly promote physical activities either.

Also, your health care is very much defined by how much you earn each month, so low-income retirees might not be able to get access to the best care they should be getting.

Because of these factors, it’s no wonder that the entire state continually ranks very low when it comes to places for seniors to settle down.

…What do you think? Is this the worst town to live in?

    While Portland Oregon used to be a nice quiet town. Efforts by the cities political leaders to make the area more cosmopolitin have left the police force woefully understaffed and many people who could have contributed to improvements have departed for places where petty crime and nightly shooting have made the place dangerous for senior citizens as well as others. Also street racing after dark where young people are offten injured make the general area generally unsafe for anyone who does not know their way around such dangerous rotating hot spots.

    Why would you want to live in Portland Oregon ? Crime is outrageous. They don’t prosecute the criminals. Don’ know & don’t want to know.
