In order to identify the best (and worst) places for Americans to spend their retirement years in comfort, WalletHub compared the retirement friendliness of 182 U.S. cities — including the 150 most populated ones — across four key dimensions: affordability, activities, quality of life and health care. It evaluated those dimensions using 46 relevant metrics, grading each on a 100-point scale, with a score of 100 representing the most favorable conditions for retirement. A city's overall score was a weighted average across all metrics. These cities were no. 1 in each dimension: |

• Affordability — Laredo, Texas
• Activities — Washington, D.C.
• Quality of life — Henderson, Nevada
• Health care — South Burlington, Vermont
