Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Another example of the need to be able to adjust the weights for your priorities. Pretty meaningless results.Good catch - that's just silly.

But you can always put on more clothes if it's cold. There's a limit to how much you can take off when it's hot.Seven degrees this morning in CT, wind chills in the negatives, and snow coming Monday-Tuesday. It really sucks when your job requires some outside activity... I could go for some “too damned hot” right now.
To be fair, we haven’t had a bad winter this season, but the older I get, the less tolerant I am of snow/cold.
That's a pretty cold top ten list. The sparsely populated western states don't usually feature in the "where to retire to" threads on this forum. A quick look at Bismarck's airport shows that traveling internationally from North Dakota would require a connection to a US hub first. This list doesn't seem to pass the "smell" test to me. Mind you, I am sure ND can be a wonderful place to live.
We live in #15, I'll take that. We lived in FL for 3 years, you couldn't pay me to live there again, but to each his/her own.
Been hanging out in #2 for 40 years -- suits me just fine.
Getting pretty popular in recent years though...
Must be all those dang mud chiggers that gum up everything from high school football fields to [-]carburetors[/-] fuel injectors.
I live in a bottom half state - Washington. And even if only half of the tax increases proposed this year are passed it will go down farther. Imagine living in a state with not only the highest gasoline tax but also the highest liquor taxes.
There are very good places in WA, affordable, good healthcare, nature, decent climate.
California at #28?? I figured it would be way lower. In 70's and 80's I knew lots of people who were moving to California since about the mid 90's i have met very few people if any who are moving there and most of the ones who did mover there back in 70's and 80's have been moving out of the place.. priced out tired of the taxes, crime traffic or unaffordable housing and rent.
Have you ever lived in Texas? It's too damned hot!
Actually I surprised that WA so low. No state income tax. Yes, Seattle (and some eastside cities are expensive) and trying to increase taxes for everything but if you retired you don't need to live there. There are very good places in WA, affordable, good healthcare, nature, decent climate.
Here's a fun one...every time I take the quiz I get a different answer though

Interesting site.
I tried it and it ended up showing me places I had never heard of before.
Lots of fun...
Don’t understand why Pennsylvania is so low. Healthcare is very good here and there are many affordable places.
