Cost of Living

For those eyeing a change of scenery to stretch their retirement dollars, Maine’s affordability might not be as dreamy as we’d hope. In fact, it's among the worst.

This Maine town pays an average of $2547 per month on bills, the most out of any city or town in the state.

Some of these places cost an arm and a leg.

Excessive housing costs, grocery bills, utility expenses, and healthcare are factors in five New England states being amongst the most expensive places to live right now.

I love Top 10 lists, especially when they bode well for New England. That doesn't just mean being on them, but also NOT being on them.

I complain about Portland having high rent but we are lucky not to be on a list Boston, Massachusetts was recently put on.
