The Golden Years may be a little duller in Massachusetts, according to a new ranking.
Massachusetts is one of the worst states in America in which to retire, according to a new study by Bankrate.
The financial website looked at categories such as affordability, overall well-being, cost and quality of healthcare, weather and crime.
The Bay State came in the bottom five among all states, 46th. Only Washington, California, New York and Alaska finished behind Massachusetts.
Iowa was ranked as the best state to retire. Bankrate cites the Hawkeye State’s lower cost of living, affordable but high-quality healthcare and low crime as a key reason to settle down there.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates as more information becomes available.
