Florida's reputation as a top state for attracting retirees has a little more swagger.
A recent study from SmartAsset, a financial technology company, says Florida is home to four of the Top 10 retirement cities in the United States. SmartAsset, to determine the Top 10, created a 100-point index that rated each city by its tax friendliness, recreational and social opportunities for seniors, availability of medical care and more.
The four nationally ranked cities in Florida — ranked third through sixth overall, in order — are Naples, Inverness, Stuart and Brooksville, the study shows. Wasilla, Alaska and Palmer, Alaska are the first and second ranked cities on the national list.
