South Dakota
South Dakota also has a cost of living that lies 4 percent higher than the national average. It is on the small side with a population of only 882,000. Hot Springs is the place of choice among senior citizens. Did you know that it is also the “Most Tax-Friendly” state? Cool. Aside from the fact that it is affordable, nature lovers will not run out of things to do. Blizzards and the cold make it less than ideal when it comes to the weather, however. Sadly, there are no big cities around the area.

Montana
The cost of living in Montana is 3 percent higher than the U.S. average. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the state boasts of 1.062 million. Retirees seem to be very fond of Glasgow. It is certainly a beautiful state, which is evident from its natural wonders like the Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks. According to Kiplinger, it boasts of one of the highest senior populations in the country. Kiplinger said the Treasure State is “Not Tax-Friendly.” The income levels are lower than average and retirement incomes are mostly taxed. That includes Social Security! There are no big cities to visit nearby either.
