@Spurt: Thanks for posting this. It's more useful than the list of states, as cities vary greatly within each state. Since climate is a very important factor to me, l would have to rule out Lancaster, PA; Grand Rapids, MI; and Pittsburgh, PA. It doesn't surprise me that cities in both Texas and Florida are represented.

I can see Texas.....at least in the San Antonio/Austn area, the cost of living is affordable, housing costs are reasonable, and healthcare is a booming industry.........

This list really surprises me.  No Arizona cities.

Re: The Top 10 Cities For Retirement

It is more affordable to buy a home here in Texas and we have no State Tax.

Plus we have lots of room and a few days of each of the four seasons.  Granted one day maybe sandal weather and the next day you may need boots.
