Top 8 Worst Cities For Retirement

New York City, New York

I’m sure that at some point, we’ve all been in a New York state of mind. But should you move there? The Big Apple might seem like a thrilling and dynamic place to retire. Unfortunately, it’s not the most senior-friendly metropolis.

First of all, New York City is one of the most expensive cities to live in the country. For instance, the rent for a two-bedroom apartment costs around $2,500 per month. Furthermore, the taxes are incredibly high, and the city is always crowded.

While NYC scores high in walkability, the unstable weather, from blizzards to heatwaves, cancels out any of these benefits, and makes it one of the worst cities to live in.

…But at least it has a low crime rate.

    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 !
