With many old plantations and historical areas, South Carolina is full of vibrant living opportunities for the active senior. Columbia, the largest city and state capital, is located in the center of the state and was voted by US News and World Reports as #6 on the “Best Affordable Places to Retire” list in 2009. A senior housing community in Columbia is a great place to locate for your retirement years.

Charleston is the oldest city in the state and one of the oldest in the country. It was founded in 1670 as Charles Towne. It’s a close second in population behind Columbia but is full of historic heritage. It’s also located on the water so you can enjoy boating or beach activities if you so desire.

One of the neat facts about choosing to retire to a senior apartment in South Carolina is the treatment of income taxes. Retirement income has very special tax rates with exemptions starting at $3,000 before age 65 and $10,000 after 65. Although you should do your research into the tax implications of moving here, the tax code is very friendly toward retirees making South Carolina a great place to spend your post-working years.

Best Places to Retire in South Carolina:

Beachgoers--try Charleston instead of Florida. Still good weather, insurance is still obtainable, most hurricanes go on by to north carolina (though not all, obviously), and the city is nearby many beaches to provide economic stability and culture.

Beach communities include Seabrook Island, Isle of Palms, Kiawah Island, Folly Beach, Sullivans Island and Edisto Island. Edisto is an hour south of Charleston, and is cheapest. Isle of Palms is our favorite.

Hilton Head - This is a major retirement town. Has lost to offer, scenery, the ocean and plenty of restaurants.

Aiken has mild Winters and is known as horse country. Also, Summerville, Columbia and Cheraw, South Carolina.
