You're kidding, right? No, not you Scott . . . Motley Fool. I've learned to take what they say with a grain of salt. Well, I guess if one is into igloo building, ice fishing, snowmobiling, and cross-country skiing, then these states are fine, weather wise. But, if you are into "summer" sports and activities like I am, eh, maybe the weather isn't so great year round. There is more to selecting a retirement location than taxes.

I know Volosong. Next week they'll be another Article by someone else, Best states for seniors to retire to. It will list five other states down south somewhere, ha,ha,ha.
One thing i have noticed in past articles, was that South Dakota, and Wyoming are always on the list somewhere.

Those are called half backs. For years we had snowbirds that would live North and go South for the winter. They realized they were not getting 4 seasons and besides, things were crowded. So they stated going to places that were half way. Gives them the advantage of more moderate temps, nice days but cooler evenings.
