Top 20 Affordable Cities for Retirees in 2020

February 7, 2020 · Retirement Life

17. Jacksonville, Florida

Seniors who are interested in adult healthcare in Jacksonville will be surprised this destination made it on this particular list. That’s because costs are fairly high at about $25,000 annually. But there’s a plus side, of course. Assisted living facilities have annual costs of around $5,310, making Jacksonville the cheapest in that regard out of our whole list.

The city is a hot spot for golfing tourists, so residents will have the pleasure of enjoying several golf courses all year round. Not enough? You could also join as many as 13,000 runners for the Gate River Run, the largest 9.3-mile race in the country.
