10 Worst States to Retire In (AARP)

Retirees need workers, to perform services lol



And, in all 3, Texas is lacking.



And, in Texas, that ain't the place. My electric bill during the warmer half of the year never dropped under $150. Oft times it was $300.

Medicare? Good luck finding a provider who takes Medicare in Texas. Last I checked, it's only accepted at the county hospitals.

My electric bill in PA was rather high. 300$ was a cheap month.

One of my friends pays like $500/month in New Jersey. In my old apt I was paying $170/month electric year round for a crappy 1000 sq ft apt.

Oh, I know. In the summer with AC it was $500-$575 a month. In Spain it is 75€ a month. This is not the biggest place but not small either. 3 bedroom, 2 full bath, attached living and dining room, with a separate kitchen. There is also a dedicated washroom for clothing that has an enclosed balcony for hang drying as well as an full balcony at the back of the place overlooking the courtyard. In reality this place is not a lot smaller than my main home in the US and yet the utilities are so much cheaper. Though, here we do pay for water on a different bill but that is cheap enough that it is not really worth mentioning.

Idk what the norm is but when I lived in OH my electric bill for a 4 bedroom house was $120 a month and there were five of us living there. Lol. Hell of a lot different than PA.
