7. Sun City, Arizona
Arizona’s famed Sun City, one of the country’s first 55-plus retirement communities, was established in 1960 near Phoenix and is still going strong. In this 26,000-home, 11-golf-course development, retirees may purchase a one- or two-bedroom apartment or townhouse for less than $100,000.
There are also dozens of churches, a synagogue, two libraries, a performing arts center, and a hospital, as well as a variety of playing grounds and courts. After a day of golf, there are nightclubs and great dining options, and Sun City is known for welcoming friends and family.
This adult playground leaves no game or activity to chance, ensuring that you will spend your retirement years happy.

Trump is the epitome of corruption.
RETIRED IN USA; Knowing places to retire is important, not just for inexpensive housing but also for places which are the least expensive in other areas, such as taxes and food prices.
In future articles, maybe you could suggest places which are the least expensive to live in comfort during one’s final years, without worrying about having to decide where to spend their money.
Thank you in advance for your consideration!
My name is Eddie Marshall and I have lived in Las Vegas since 1994. I am 50 years of age and I was thinking about relocating to Florida within the next year. I need a comprehensive layout plan of how much I need to sustain my living expenses compared to Florida’s Cost of Living. I was thinking about retiring within the next 5 years. I don’t necessarily need to live in a Retirement Community. What are your thoughts, ideas, and suggestions for my plans? Have a Great Day.
Am familiar with the Sandwich, IL area, having lived a few miles away in Oswego for 19 years. Could not retire and stay in IL due to the incredibly high property, school and income taxes which in 2019 made my mortgage payments more that twice what I now pay in TN. Had a nice house with protected Federal Wildland and a small lake behind our 3 bedroom, 2 bath ranch. Great area despite being under Pritzker’s political thumb. But the taxes were a killer.
