First, GOBankingRates identified qualifying cities using the U.S. Census American Community Survey.
Using the cost-of-living indexes and national average expenditure costs for retired residents, the average expenditure cost was calculated.
Based on the average mortgage and expenditure costs, the total monthly and annual cost of living was determined.
All scores were summed and ranked to determine the best retirement towns for the middle class.
All data was collected on and is current as of Sept. 19, 2024.
