These articles were little eye-openers about which States you might want to think about twice if you move to them in retirement:
Beyond California: States in Fiscal Peril
Here's another article:
» With Some States in Trouble, Be Careful About Worst States to Retire Topretirements
Being that Florida, Arizona and Nevada are probably 3 of the most popular retirement States--and on these lists--would you still move there if you had a choice of where to retire?
More than which States are in fiscal trouble, I was surprised at some of the States that were fiscally healthy right now (except I knew Wyoming actually has a surplus of money in the kitty).
It IS something to think about if you are looking for a new home for the next 15 years for retirement. I'd hate to move to a State that starts cutting services and upping my taxes because it was broke.
