That’s right; retirees might consider waltzing first to the Volunteer state for their golden years, according to John Brady, the president of TopRetirements.com. Why so? Well, Tennessee ranked highest among all 50 states based on Brady’s analysis of such factors as taxes on all types of income (Tennessee taxes only interest and dividends), property taxes, climate, cost of living and senior health-care costs. What’s more, the state really wants retirees to sit for a spell and then some.

Based on our own research 3 years ago, we agree. That's why we bought our retirement house inTN. Moving in under 3 months. See you soon.

I did two years of research and came to the same conclusion. We are in escrow now and can't wait to make the move.

I have to agree also. Although I grew up in TN., I moved away to CA. when I was a young man and just recently moved back here and retired. I researched this for several years.

It's ok, there will be another study by a different group using different parameters that will put Tennessee in the bottom ten.
