Missouri
For retirees, the low living costs in Missouri is certainly a plus, since the costs are lower than the national average by 10 percent! Bookworms love the fact that a lot of famous writers come from the state. There are 6.1 million people living in the Show Me State, with Columbia being the best city to live in. It may be cheap to live in Missouri, but keep in mind that the income levels for seniors are low at just a little over $43,000. Besides that, the healthcare for senior citizens is poor and the tax situation is less than ideal.
