8 Peaceful Mississippi Towns Where Retirees Keep Their Whole Check
A retired machinist from Rockford, Illinois sold his house for $190,000, moved to a Mississippi town almost nobody outside the state has heard of, and bought a brick home with a porch for $138,000. His property tax bill for the entire year came to less than one month up north. And he's not alone. All across Mississippi, retirees are quietly discovering the same thing: your money doesn't have to run out at 70. Mississippi takes nothing from your Social Security, nothing from your pension, nothing from your retirement savings — your whole check stays yours. Add living costs running about 13% below the national average, and that check buys more the day you arrive.
