"When searching for a place to live, safety is at the top of my list," says Barrett, who is 62 and single. "My life involves a great deal of outdoor activities such as jogging and walking my dog-and it's of vital importance that I be safe and secure."
According to security expert Erik G. Schneider, retirees should 'look for properties with good lighting, security systems, cameras, gated access, or on-site security personnel.' This showcases the emphasis on personal safety measures when relocating.
Barrett and other retirees have safety concerns and are encouraged to explore U.S. News & World Report's list of the Safest Places To Live in the US, which ranks cities based on crime rates.
These 10 safest cities in America not only have a lower crime rate than similarly sized metro areas, but also reflect a growing trend among retirees prioritizing both safety and happiness in their relocation choices.
