Three spots in Georgia ranked among the top cities in the country to retire, according to U.S. News & World Report.
U.S. News & World Reports analyzed data from 150 cities to determine how well they meet certain criteria, including happiness of residents, housing affordability, tax rates, and health care.
Ranked No. 51 on the list is Augusta, located near the South Carolina border. Some might know this town as the home of the Masters golf tournament, but residents and locals see it as so much more than that.
“Today, Augusta is home to a thriving culinary scene, and residents show a deep appreciation for the arts and the outdoors,” U.S. News wrote. “Augusta is also becoming a destination for retirees who want warm weather and a low cost of living. Plus, suburbs in nearby towns Evans, Martinez and Grovetown are go-to places for families to settle and commute into the downtown area.”
