GenXers are substantially less likely to crave new surroundings with just 46 percent thinking about retirement location.

Even fewer boomers are inclined to hit the road, at 37 percent, while the Silent Generation is pretty much staying put—just 12 percent are prepared to pull up stakes for greener pastures.

Using data from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, American Public Health Association,Council for Community and Economic Research, Creative Vitality Index, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Gallup-Healthways, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Partnership for Prevention, Tax Foundation, Princeton Survey Research Associates International, United Health Foundation and U.S. Census Bureau, Bankrate toted up all the pertinent statistics and came up with rankings for all 50 states in 8 categories:

• cost of living

• weather

• health care quality

• crime

• taxes

• culture

• the prevalence of other seniors

• senior citizens' well-being

Here are their top 10 retirement destinations.

10. Idaho

Idaho did best in the categories of crime (low, winning it a rating of 4) and cost of living (also low, for which it was rated 5).

But when it comes to some of the other important factors in deciding whether the state is a good destination for retirement, it didn't perform quite as well—although well-being got it a 19, while health care quality came in at 20 and taxes 22.

After that, though, it only got a 31 for weather, while the prevalence of other seniors came in at 37 and culture at 42.

9. Wisconsin

Cheese lovers (and New Glarus beer lovers?) rejoice; America's Dairyland will welcome you with excellent health care (ranked second) and a high well-being ranking, in sixth place.

It finished in 16^th place for crime—not great but not horrible—and 22^nd place for the prevalence of other seniors, while cost of living came in at 24 and culture at 29.

Where it loses out is on weather, garnering a 42^nd-place finish, and on taxes, high enough to rank them in a low 46^th place.

8. South Dakota

South Dakota's strongest point for retirees is its low tax bill (the state finished in 3^rd place in that category), but after that its rankings start to drop.

Well-being got a 15, health care quality 18, and both crime and the prevalence of other seniors were ranked at 20.

But the cost of living finished below the midpoint at 26^th place, with culture and weather bringing up the rear at 34^th and 40^th place, respectively.

7. Massachusetts

The Bay State didn't do too badly in most categories, although it was most hurt by a low ranking for a high cost of living—45^th place—and high taxes, at 40^th place.

Still, its culture won it a 3, while its health care quality came in at 5.

Well-being was pretty good, too, at 9, but then it slips a bit to come in at17th place for crime, 24^th place for the prevalence of other seniors and 40^th place for its high taxes.

6. Virginia

The Old Dominion could become your dominion with most of its rankings above, or well above, the midpoint.

The sole exceptions are the prevalence of other seniors, which is pretty low at 40, its cost of living, which only got it a 31, and its score for well-being, for which it finished in 29^th place.

Still, in other categories it finished above the midpoint: taxes came in at 23^rd place, both weather and the quality of its health care placed 16^th, culture finished 14^th and crime was a low 5^th place.

5. Minnesota

The Land of 10,000 Lakes seems to be a pretty nice place to retire, although its highs—actually pretty high—are offset by lows that are, well, pretty low.

A 3^rd-place finish for health care quality, a 4^th-place finish for well-being and a 7^th-place finish for culture stand out, followed by a 14^th-place finish for crime—a respectable grade.

After that, the marks dip a bit, however; cost of living got a 30, while the prevalence of other seniors dropped to 34^th place, and taxes—a big worry for lots of seniors—scored at 43^rd place.

4. Iowa

In the Hawkeye State, the lows are higher and the highs are lower to bring it to its position on the list.

Its highest grades, for both the prevalence of other seniors and the quality of its health care, tied at 9, while well-being scored 10^th, cost of living was graded 14^th and crime was 15^th.

Taxes rated a 20^th-place ranking, with culture and weather scoring 35^th and 36^th, respectively.

3. Maine

Three categories for the state of Maine finished below the midpoint—taxes, at 35^th place, cost of living at 38^th place and as one might expect, the weather at 44^th place.

But it's top in the nation for the quality of its health care, finishing in first place; that's followed by second place for its level of crime and also for the prevalence of other seniors.

After that comes well-being, in 11^th place, and culture, in 19^th—a pretty good showing for the Pine Tree State.

2. Colorado

With Rocky Mountain High taking on a new meaning for the State of Colorado with the legalization of marijuana, one might not be surprised to find that in matters of health care, the state finished 7^th.

Well-being finished even higher, though, in 3^rd place, culture placed 9^th  and taxes 16^th. Weather merited a 20^th-place finish, while crime was 26^th and the cost of living 33^rd.

Surprisingly, the state is not a big destination for seniors—at least not yet; it only ranked 46^th for prevalence of other seniors.

1. New Hampshire

The Granite State is another one for which the highs are higher—but its lows (hint: there are really only two) are pretty low.

That said, the state finished second for well-being, third for crime level and fourth for the quality of its health care.

Culture came in 6^th, taxes 7^th and proximity to other seniors 14^th. After that come the state's "poor" showings, with the cost of living ranked at 40 and the weather at the bottom in 45^th place.
