Best Spots for Low Cost-of-Living and/or Low Taxes   

For most seniors, retirement income comes from three sources:  Social Security benefits, private pensions and asset income.  Some retirees prefer to stay where they have lived prior to retirement, but others find it to be too expensive without steady employment income.  Even downsizing one's home doesn't always save enough for a comfortable retirement.

If you searching for a spot where the cost-of-living is low, check out the towns below.  Cost-of-living is based on health care, housing, taxes, recreation, food, utilities and transportation costs.  These are compared against the national cost-of-living average to determine the most affordable places to live in the United States.  Click here for a list of states with no income tax, here for a list of states that tax Social Security benefits and here for a list of states with estate death taxes (in some states, dying is no excuse for not paying taxes).
