Personal Finance Website Bankrate.com conducted a survey of Americans and found out which US states are the most profitable for retirees.

Despite the rather cool weather, the first place was taken by New Hampshire.

The top ten also included Colorado, Maine, Iowa, Minnesota, Virginia, Massachusetts, South Dakota, Wisconsin and Idaho.

These states have received the best reviews in terms of finance and lifestyle, which are very important for retirees. The criteria for selecting the best states also included the cost of living, quality of health care, crime rate, cultural life, weather, taxes, the general welfare of retirees and the proportion of older people in the state’s population.

New Hampshire ranked in the top five in 3 categories - well-being (second), crime rate (third among states with the lowest crime), and quality of health care (fourth), and the state also ranked high in all other categories; it scored low received only for weather conditions.

Warm southern states such as Arizona, Florida and Nevada remain popular destinations for retirement. However, they lose to more northern states in the categories in which the survey was conducted. Arizona, which ranked 12 among all states, was unable to make it into the top ten in 7 from the 8 survey categories.

Florida ranked 17 among the states, having failed to get into the top 10 in any category.

Nevada is ranked as one of the worst states to retire in, ranking 44th. The state has low health care quality scores and ranks 4th among states with the highest crime rates.

Also, when considering options for retirement, Alaska, West Virginia, Arkansas, New Mexico and Louisiana should be avoided.

Alaska ranked last. The state ranks 2 among the most criminal regions in the United States, there is poor quality of health care and one of the highest levels of cost of living.

A survey was also conducted of working Americans about their preferences when they retire. It turned out that most of them expect from this period of adventure and the opportunity to go hiking, play golf, etc. Although, as practice shows, from the approach of retirement, people think more about taxes and medical care than about hiking.

About half of young Americans (58% born in 2000 and 46% of those born с 1965 by 1979 years) announced their intention to move to another city or state after retirement. With age, the number of people willing to relocate decreases, the intention to change their place of residence after retirement was expressed 37% of baby boomers (born in 1940-1950s) and 12% of representatives of the so-called silent generation (born 1923-1943).
