Scottsdale cracked a list of the best places to retire in the United States in 2024, according to a recent study.
The WalletHub study analyzed 182 cities across the U.S. using 45 key metrics to compare these cities benefits for retirees based on four categories: affordability, quality of life, activities available and health care quality.
The study named Orlando as the No. 1 place to live during your golden years. Four other Florida cities — Fort Lauderdale, Tampa, Miami and St. Petersburg — also made the top 10.
Scottsdale, on the other hand, stood out as Arizona’s lone representative in the top 10. Other state cities were scattered across lower spots in the ranking.
Here’s why Scottsdale made it to the top of the list and how other Arizona cities performed in the study, as well as a breakdown of the worst and best states to retire, according to WalletHub.
