If your golden years are approaching, or if early retirement is in the cards, where to decide to enjoy your post-work life can prove to be a challenge. WalletHub has tried to take some of the guesswork out of the process, examining nearly four dozen metrics in all 50 states, in three key categories: how affordable each state is for retirees (e.g., cost of living and tax friendliness); the quality of life, which includes such things as the weather, the crime rate, and the quality of air and drinking water; and health care, which looks at everything from life expectancy and the well-being index, to medical workers per capita and the quality of public hospitals. Florida comes in at No. 1 on the list. Read on for other states that made the top 10:
- Florida
- Colorado
- Delaware
- Virginia
- North Dakota
- Montana
- Idaho
- Utah
- Minnesota
- New Hampshire (No. 1 in "Quality of Life" category)
