Top 8 Worst Cities For Retirement

Seattle, Washington

Seattle is a fantastic place to live if you’re loaded with cash. But for those of us living on social security checks and semi-decent pensions, it’ll be a struggle to live in the city center because rental prices average $2,000 per month.

And besides the high cost of living, this city’s weather is a continuous source of disappointment. It seems like it’s constantly raining, and its winters can be too dark and gloomy. Its residents also grumble about the poor transportation system and horrendous traffic jams.

If you’re like me, and are a fan of sunshine….then this is one of the worst cities you can move to!

…So, even though we’ve all probably romanticized this city due to the onslaught of movies filmed here, you’re better off visiting and NOT moving here!

    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.

    Democrats should retire to Portland to see what is being done to the rest of the Democrat run cities and states in our country !
