Ohio

Ohio is one of the best places to retire in 2021. If you decide to give Ohio a chance, you’ll find it has one of the most affordable housing options in the nation, with fairly low taxes, with Social Security retirement benefits fully exempt from state income taxes.

Ohio has all four seasons, but that’s exactly what some retirees are looking for. The state is home to the highly regarded Cleveland Clinic and other high-quality medical institutions such as the Christ Hospital.

Some of the biggest benefits of retiring in Ohio include:

  • Ohio is one of the best states to live in for under $40,000 per year, according to AARP
  • Renowned cultural institutions like the Cleveland Museum of Art and the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force
  • World-class education
  • Perfect location for a laid-back, waterfront lifestyle
