Travel and Leisure Magazine has designated Naples the #1 place to retire in the entire United States.
SmartAssetts has this to say on retirement in the city of Naples:
“Naples is the best place to retire in Florida, and the best place to retire in the entire United States. That’s according to our methodology that considers tax burden and the prevalence of medical centers, recreation centers, retirement communities and other seniors.”
The Naples Lifestyle
Naples is the best kept secret in Southwest Florida! Unlike Miami or the east coast, Naples has sugar white beaches, squeaky clean public places, and so many upscale amenities that you might wonder why anyone would live anywhere else. Naples retains a small town charm but has a glitzy nightlife you won’t find anywhere else. Old Naples buzzes with an urban nightlife that is safe, clean, and walkable. With so many high end restaurants, art galleries, theaters, and shops, you’ll never get bored. Read what Trip Advisor and reviewers have to say about Old Naples.
Tax Benefits
Not only is Florida a state income tax free state, but local property taxes remain low by state law. There are a variety of tax exemptions to lower your property taxes even more. You can find the current tax rates here and estimate your property taxes on Collier County’s Tax Appraiser Site.
Business Owners
If you’ve been thinking about opening a small business in retirement, or currently operate a flow through entity in another state, then Florida is a great state to own a business. State taxes for corporations are fair and affordable at around 5%. Out of state entities with no corporate ownership do not have to file a Florida state franchise return.
