Known for its bourbon, amazing tax codes, the derby, and the fact that housing is pretty affordable, Kentucky was originally thought to be a major state for retirees. But there are some issues that pensioners have to deal with in the Bluegrass State. It has actually been rated as the worst for ‘both preventable hospitalizations and mental distress for seniors,’ which makes it one state with some of the lowest health expectancies. And the pace of life is so slow, resident Tiffany Bridgeman shared on Quora, “If I want anybody to come out to, say, do some work on plumbing, I have to call on a Monday to perhaps get somebody to come out on a Friday or next Tuesday. It takes a month to get a doctor’s appointment and a week to ask for a refill.”
