12. Nebraska

Nebraska is one of the least populated states in the U.S., therefore if you are looking for a calm place to retire this might be it. Located in the Great Plains and cut through by the Missouri River this farm state is an outdoor haven.

The weather in Nebraska varies from location to location. The east side of the state is humid, while the western side is known for being rather dry. The summers there are hot and winters are properly cold.

Nebraska is considered to be rather affordable. The overall cost of living in the state is 11% below average. This means you can enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and wonderful outdoors for less.
