Choose to Live in Connecticut

Maybe the heat of Hawaii isn’t the best place to live in, then you should consider Connecticut. Despite not beating Hawaii when it comes to the average years, it is still on par with the other cities on our list, ranking at 20.2 years over the age of 65. So if you decide to retire in this state, know that, on average, men have a life expectancy of 18.8 years while women come in at 21.5.

If you’ve lived all your life in a really hot state, the Nutmeg State has an extra charming point, which would be the fact that you’ll be able to experience all the seasons with your grandkids.

There’s one thing you should keep in mind: despite the fact that the landscape is gorgeous and that you will definitely have a lot of things to do, the state also came in as one of the most expensive states in which you can choose to retire to. We don’t know if there’s anything that connects the expensive factor with the life expectancy after retirement, but it could be that they are mutually influencing each other.

Despite this, the state is gorgeous and Danbury has been rocking people’s worlds, ranking second on lists of the best places to retire in the northeast, with New Britain coming in at number eight. With two places ranking pretty high in the same state, you know there’s a lot of value in moving to live here, besides the age factor!

And if you’re planning to retire abroad, don’t worry! We found the places where you will live the longest out of everywhere else, while also having the time of your life!

    Are you kidding? NJ is a state you RUN from. Worst politicians; highest property taxes in the nation! Corrupt and will steal every penny from you. The person who wrote this not for real. Who knows what he/she was paid to write this

    I missed becoming a politician
    I would have free healthcare, no deductibles, no pre- exicisting exclusions, a great salary for life! I also will never need or use Social Security and Medicare therefore I can live anywhere I want to….

    Typical progressive rhetoric, d (I guess “d” is for democrat or just dumb ass). And by the way, it’s the blue regime that has made the mess no matter how much you want to blame others. Sick of listening g to the continuous stream of blue BS! As for these live long suggestions, “J” hit it perfectly, but blue and obviously this website is trying to sell what nobody is buying! Last time I will open any of your emails.

    MA, NY, NJ, CT, MN, and HI are some of the highest taxed states in the country, and all except HI are cold weather states, also you need a high income to live in all of the listed states, but I do know from living in MN that the hospitals are better in northern states than southern states on the fact more people live in those states but living in SC is great weather is great it’s cheaper you can own a home for under 100k and you can live on a 2k social security check in SC you would be hard pressed to do that in any of the states mentioned in this article.
