 you could say it's very nearly ideal.

I forgot to thank you for such an informative comment. You could have a second career in local government or the chamber of commerce promoting the area if you wanted one.

Does anyone know of an online calculator that shows how heavily various types of retirement income are taxed by each U.S. state? I can easily find webpages that list whether, for example, social security or pension income gets taxed, but I'd like a calculator that simultaneously spews out results for all states once I've plugged in numbers.

Convinced the wifey to visit Puerto Rico over the winter holidays. Maybe we could establish legal residence there for 6 months plus 1 day per year. Depends on how much she likes the food.
It's terrible writing, used to obfuscate the fact that the authors actually have nothing to say.

Perhaps an older copy of Turbotax would let you input your federal information and then change your state to simulate what the state taxes for each one would be.

The final day to do taxes for 2023 is in october. You may still be able to download the current edition, but it would not be at a discounted price.  I guess that it would depend on how much you want the information.

Hurricanes like Helene are one reason Florida isn't on my list of possible retirement locations.

Anywhere near a coast, really. I'm never moving any closer than 200 miles from any coast (except perhaps a Great Lake coast).

Depending where you live, the coast might come to you.
Also, does not your username show an affinity for the wet element?

We are in agreement - coasts are nice to visit but not the safest place to retire. Appalachians aren't looking too safe right now either. Perhaps Shangri-la?

Are you doing ok in your part of NC?

I have students in the NC National Guard who have been activated, and another in the Greenville-Spartanburg area who has electrical power but food and drinking water is in short supply.
