This very important book is easy to read, very well researched and of great importance to retiring seniors. Everyone near the age of retirement should buy and read this book. It has been of great help to myself and my husband as we try to decide which state has the least tax burden on retirees.

Excellent detail; a great help in comparing areas of the country and identifying choices for a place to live.

I bought this book based on the reviews. Big mistake. I am not a CPA, but for the last several years I have been researching the overall tax situation for all US states. When reviewing this book I wondered if the calculations were done correctly. For example PA is ranked very low. Meaning it is not a very desirable place to live for retirees based on this book. I don’t agree and I don’t live there. PA has a waiver on state income taxes for retirees on their retirement accounts even those coming from other states. Also, regarding their property taxes, which has been assessed using the original price of the home when it was built not current value. This can be very beneficial for those owning an older home. I could go on with other states that I wonder if they figured in the right numbers. When the book arrived and after looking at it for about 15 minutes I wanted to send it back and/or call the authors to ask them some questions. Very disappointing. I realize others have given this book high marks. I am wondering if they tried to verify the stats in this book. If you buy this book please verify the information before you move to a state mentioned.

This book is useful in making a comparison of hidden costs when moving from one location to another. For those thinking of retiring or relocating to a state that has no income tax it is definitely a useful tool to get a better analysis. In general, I would recommend this book as a good reference source.

This book really opened my eyes to how drastically different each state is regarding taxes in all areas. I always new that my state had a high tax rate on everything, but this book confirmed that I live in a “tax hell”! I plan to leave my state at first opportunity and definitely will not retire here.
