7. Johnstown

Johnstown is the second-least expensive place on this list. Costs of living are 22 percent above the national average and real estate prices are far from reaching skyrocketing sums. If you want to buy a home in Johnstown, you need to pay only $41 per square foot. Still, with a median household income of $25,367, Johnstown is also the poorest place on the list. Besides poverty, high crime rate and the weather might be reasons why only 0.1 percent of all newcomers to Johnstown are seniors. Currently, 18.5 percent of residents are older than 65, which makes the city the oldest one on this list. So if you do not mind living in a place with high humidity and scarcity of sunny days, and if you have solid savings on your bank account, Johnstown is worth considering as a retirement destination.
