Great Places for Retirement Safety

Safety is a concern for everyone but it is especially important to seniors.   These towns rank below the national average when it comes to crime statistics.

Fort Myers, Florida

Beautiful beaches and casual living are just two of the reasons that Fort Myers continues to be a leading retirement destination.  Another reason is the low crime rate.  In fact, Fort Myers has one of the lowest crime rates in all of Florida.   On a scale of 100, it ranks a 70.  

Cost-of-Living:  Meets the national average

Whidbey Island, Washington

Rural Whidbey Island has the distinction of being the longest island in the United States (Long Island, NY has been ruled a peninsula) and has been a retirement destination for mariners for over a century.  It is about an hour from Seattle and has three towns, the largest with a population of 15,000; the county seat is a charming seaport of 1,300 people.  Whidbey Island is also one of the safest places to retire in America.  On a scale of 100, it rates a 96 when it comes to safety, and it has seen a decrease in crime during the last five years.  With 14 crimes per 1,000 residents, it ranks well below the national average of 50 crimes per 1,000 residents.

Brevard, North Carolina

This charming city of 6,000 people enjoys a moderate four-season climate and is located in a dry county (no liquor sales), which contributes to Brevard being one of the top cities for personal safety in the United States.  Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina, Brevard offers retirees a small town atmosphere, friendly neighbors and  natural beauty in addition to a sense of personal safety.  With 2.3 crimes per 1,000 residents, Brevard's crime rate is well below the national average.
