Pennsylvania – Lancaster
Pennsylvania is making another appearance on our list, though it cannot give Florida a run for its money with the number of entries on our index. However, a retiree’s happiness doesn’t lie, and Lancaster is definitely up there with all the other places here, with the added bonus that it is also affordable.
The city is a peaceful oasis, full of open, wide spaces that just call for a moment of relaxation, and they all come with all the amenities you would expect from a big city. You can add some historical landmarks and some amazing hiking trails to the list of things you can enjoy, along with an abundance of fresh produce, as Lancaster is surrounded by farmlands owned by the Amish.
The average cost of living per person is around $1,895 a month, which makes it pretty affordable in the grand scheme of things!
