18 Surprisingly Affordable Retirement Destinations You’ve Never Considered Before

May 6, 2021 · Retirement Life

Bozeman, Montana

If you love spending time surrounded by nature and picturesque landscapes, small-town Bozeman is where you should head for your retirement. Located nearby Grand Tetons and Yellowstone National Park, there’s an abundance of things to do there, from skiing on groomed trails and on national forest trails to hiking, fishing or golfing at one of the many private or public courses.

The state taxes a part of the Social Security benefits for retirees whose income exceeds a certain threshold but there’s no sale tax and the median housing prices are rather low, which help compensate things. The healthcare services have improved over the years but seniors in Bozeman have a healthier lifestyle because of the nature and access to outdoor activities.

    Not Kahului, Hawaii!! Average home prices over 1 million. Surely you guys are not serious. Cost more than 30% to live there than anywhere else in US. Infrastructure can not handle the locals and tourist at the same time. Most beaches are crowded and traffic is the pits. Do your homework and spend some time there before you send seniors there.
