4. Hawaii 

If this is not one of the nicest places, then I don’t know where else it could be! Hawaii is another tax-friendly state where the median property tax rate is $281 per $100,000 of assessed home value. This could be heaven for retirees. It also exempts Social Security benefits.

Good to know: If you have other sources of income, Hawaii will tax that income at rates up to 11%.

A downside here is that property values are pretty high, and sales taxes are pretty low in this state. Another thing to keep in mind is that the purchase of clothing and groceries is taxed.

    Posts seem to disappear on here. Not worth writing them if they disappear.
