Seniorly recently ranked the best and worst states to retire based on nine metrics spread across three categories: affordability, quality of life, and healthcare. They used a Z-score, or standard normal distribution, to scale each metric relative to the mean across all 50 states and Washington, D.C. and then calculated an overall ranking by determining the average score across all metrics for each state.
