Eh? I disagree with this list honestly. Maryland has a lot of things going against it, but you head over to the bay community towns and beaches and there are tons of retirees, that are pretty darn wealthy and enjoying life. Our weather can be particularly brutal, but for those that live here, we're used to it and we like it.

 

Delaware is also a perfectly acceptable place to live, though the real estate is extremely inflated unless you go to the lower shore. The pollution doesn't even come from the state itself, but PA and NJ. There are tons of fantastic beautiful places to live in that state, and lots of retirees enjoy it there and it's also a happening place for the young and wealthy. Tax free shopping too.

 

I can't speak for the whole of PA, but honestly I'd love to live there and I'm happiest there. Plenty of retirees and they are opening up retirement developments all the time.

 

Now South Carolina... I don't get the appeal.. then again I don't get the appeal of Florida either.

I think that is the same in most states. some great places and some that are not so great. Georgia has  some really great places to live and one of the most exclusive in the nation.. Sea Island. it also has a town I am near, Macon  which is a cesspool . I live outside the traditionally African American areas, which are extremely dangerous, so its not so bad

The WX was listed as one of the good things.  Crime and high costs seem to take away from the beauty, it seems.  But if you want to live in one of the top 10 states, the NE is not the area to be in.

 

I looked for and found the parent study...
