The website Finance Buzz has just taken a look at cities across America to decide which locations are the best for seniors. If you look at the map they created as a result, you’ll see a big number 4 over Missouri.

They said that St. Louis is “a city overflowing with socialization opportunities, boasting some of the highest per capita rates of bars, gyms, community centers, and sports and social clubs of any city in the country”.
