Seven States Seniors Should Consider for Retirement Living

For years, retirees flocked to the Sunshine State. But Florida is no longer the ideal retirement destination, largely due to soaring housing and insurance costs. However, that doesn’t mean seniors need to stay put. An article by Yahoo! Finance finds there are plenty of other options that offer quality of life and affordability — two key criteria for retirement living.

The seven states now giving Florida a run for its money are Alabama, Wyoming, South Carolina, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Colorado and Utah.

The Seniors Trust is committed to improving the financial well-being of America’s retirees — regardless of which state they live in — through passage of The Social Security Expansion Act. It will give retirees an immediate benefits increase of about $200 a month, establish a fair annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), increase minimum benefits, and ensure the long-term solvency of the Social Security program.
