What do these ten cities all have in common?

They are dominated by liberals.

That means that they have high taxes, high cost of living, and expensive ObamaCare.

Stay away if you are 65 +.

Retire in a red state instead!

Those are some of the best cities in the world! All of the worlds top cities are expensive to live in.

Thats where you go to make your fortune so that you can then retire in some (Red) sleepy town and vote against the blue/Democrats who helped make you your fortune.

They also have a very high cost of living which has nothing to do with politics.

Yes, Honolulu and San Francisco are expensive. It might have to do with the fact that so many people want to live in Honolulu and San Francisco.

Or you could say that liberal-run cities are generally more desirable places to live -- hence the high cost of living.

Or the the actual geographic location of the two cities stops outward growth coupled with the NIMBY's that stop upward growth. But what do I know, I only live 10 miles from SF.

I think for most of those cities, geography has more to do with it than anything else.

Yes, the article eliminates some of the greatest places on earth to live. I'm working entirely so that I can afford to enjoy living out my days in one of these places rather than some simmering cauldron of right wing moronic misery.
