The Last Frontier is very tax-friendly for retirees, although not many people take advantage of this fact. Yahoo! Finance says that Anchorage is the best place to live in. According to Kiplinger, the costs of living in Alaska is 32 percent higher than the U.S. national average. It is important to consider health care costs if you are a senior citizen, which might make you reconsider. This state has a population of 730,000 people.

New Jersey is a great place, especially for those in their Golden Years. Long Beach Township is worth considering you are looking into moving there. It has a population of 8.909 million, which makes it ideal. You can catch great views of the water from Ocean City and New York City is a train ride away. History buffs will also love it here thanks to its rich history. Compared to South Dakota and Montana, the cost of living is on the higher end at 27 percent higher than the national average. Medical care and property taxes tend to cost more as well. The Garden State is not the best place to live in for low-income retirees.
