Living in Alaska is more expensive than in the rest of the United States, almost 30% more, so a person looking to retire might consider that when moving to the state. Despite this, the median home cost is around $20K cheaper than the US average, making it possible to find an affordable living. One of the highest costs in Alaska is the utilities, which are 57 percent more than the national average. It's a state that can be worth the extra costs, but it would be best if you prepared by researching the best places to live in the state.
