Nevada: Ranked #14, (Tied with Indiana)

My News

Settling in Nevada after retirement can have its risks and benefits. On the upside, the state doesn’t charge income tax, which means that you get to keep more of your retirement money to use on things that matter. The downside is that the cost of living there can be quite high.

Many people, young or old, have moved to Nevada in search of better opportunities, and it seems that most of them found just that. The state boasts of a relatively low senior poverty rate that is 1% lower than that of the national average. This means that people actually find ways to allow them to afford living there. So why does Nevada make it to this list?

Unfortunately, Nevada scores very low in senior wellness. According to Bankrate’s ranking of the best and worst places to retire in, the state comes in 48th place when it comes to senior health.
