Highest-risk states
Relative scores based on public signals. Higher scores indicate more retirement risk pressure across the six core risks.
Lowest-risk states
Lower scores signal less relative pressure. Scores update automatically with new data releases.
How we score states
Directional signals from public data sources: SSA life tables, BLS CPI + regional inflation, CMS healthcare cost data, IRS brackets/RMD/IRMAA, state tax + retirement policy data, housing and insurance indices. Scores are explanatory, not predictive.
Longevity + sequence awareness
Retirement timing, expected horizon, and early-retirement drawdown sensitivity.
Cost pressure
Regional inflation, housing/insurance trends, and healthcare/LTC costs by state.
Tax + policy
State tax drag, RMD/IRMAA implications, pension treatment, and property tax context.
Location flexibility
Housing status and the ability to relocate or adjust spending paths over time.
