The Worst Place to Retire

We talk a lot here about how to get the best out of your retirement years, but what's the worst place to retire? According to a new survey from WalletHub, it's right here in New Jersey. Newark rates as exorbitantly expensive while also having little in the way of activities for retirees. On the bright side, the health care options are good.

Jersey City also finished high up on the list, at No. 8. Its primary advantage over Newark appears to be that there's more to do there. The top ten unfavorable cities for retirees:

  1. Newark
  2. Bridgeport, Conn.
  3. Warwick, R.I.
  4. Baltimore
  5. Stockton, Calif.
  6. Providence, R.I.
  7. Bakersfield, Calif.
  8. Jersey City
  9. Modesto, Calif.
  10. Fresno, Calif.
