Explore Southwest Michigan, where affordable living meets scenic beauty, vibrant wineries, and outdoor adventures, making it a prime spot for retirees seeking a fulfilling life.
Why Retire in Michigan?
Recently, Michigan was among the 5 best places to retire primarily due to the surprisingly low cost of living according to Insider Monkey,
Coming in at number 5 is the state of Michigan. Michigan boasts a cost of living that is 9.4% lower than the national average. Moreover, the tax-friendly state doesn’t tax Social Security benefits and also provides deductions on other types of retirement income.
A few years ago, Bankrate released a study on the best states to retire. That study showed us that Michigan was the #1 most affordable state to retire in due to a low cost of living and low taxes compared to the rest of the United States.
I would agree that the cost of living in Michigan, specifically Southwest Michigan, is incredibly low compared to any other place I have lived in the United States. Especially when you consider all that the mitten state has to offer. From wineries and breweries to National, state, and local parks. Not to mention Lake Michigan!
