If you want to make your money stretch after retiring, look no further than the Great Lakes state. Michigan ranks as the most affordable state to retire in 2022, according to a recent Bankrate analysis. This is due to a low cost of living and light tax burden for residents. To compile the overall list of best states to retire, Bankrate ranked states according to five categories: affordability; health and wellness; culture and diversity; weather; and crime. To calculate affordability, Bankrate analyzed the July 2022 Cost of Living Index from the Council for Community and Economic Research and property and sales tax rates from the Tax Foundation's 2022 rankings.

Here are the seven most affordable states to retire, according to Bankrate:

Michigan Tennessee Missouri Mississippi Kentucky Oklahoma Georgia

Despite its top ranking in affordability, Michigan didn't place as highly in other categories. It ranked in the 30s for health and wellness, culture and diversity, and weather, and ranked 29th for crime. And although Florida is known to have good tax benefits for retirees, it came in at No. 18 for affordability since the state's cost of living has been rising, Bankrate reports. However, the state scored high marks in other categories, including ranking No. 1 for culture and diversity and No. 5 for weather. When thinking about where to retire, there are a number of things to consider. Everyone has different priorities. Ask yourself questions such as, "how will your income be taxed?" says Clark Kendall, president of Kendall Capital Management in Rockville, Maryland, and author of "Middle-Class Millionaire."

"Look at how you're going to spend your money, too," Kendall adds.

"When you're considering a community, you have to think about what you still want to do," says Ginni Field, a real estate broker in Oceanside, California, who specializes in senior buyers and sellers. "Do you still want to be able to play golf, tennis or pickleball?" Don't miss: Millennial and Gen Z workers aren’t saving enough for retirement—here are 3 tips to get on track

What does portable Wi-Fi cost?

How much does a mobile hotspot cost? Hotspots cost anywhere from $59 to $400 for the device, plus the cost of a data plan. Good quality 4G LTE hotspots are usually $200 and up and give you just what you need. 5G hotspots cost much more, but there are fewer of them to choose from.

T-Mobile’s Inseego 5G MiFi M2000 is the most well-rounded hotspot you can get. It comes at the lowest price out of all the major 5G hotspots and connects up to 30 devices—way more than a phone or 4G hotspot can do. Itt uses Wi-Fi 6 (the latest wireless standard) to maintain strong and consistent Wi-Fi signals even when you’re using it with a large group. The M2000 also comes with settings for guest networks, MAC filtering, and a security firewall—all of which you can adjust by logging in to the device’s interface from your browser. Just as importantly, the hotspot’s data plans are cheap and flexible: T-Mobile’s data options start at just $5 per month, and you can add extra data any time you run out. Our only issue with the M2000 is that it doesn’t give you the blockbuster 5G speeds available on millimeter-wave and C-band frequencies—it mostly works over the mid-band 5G spectrum. But T-Mobile has the largest 5G network in the United States. A recent report from Opensignal shows it gets the fastest average 5G speeds compared to Verizon and AT&T—so you can still count on getting excellent performance from this little beast.1
