Seneca named Best Place to Retire in SC

The City of Seneca has been ranked first in South Carolina as the best place to retire. Seneca Mayor Dan Alexander was very pleased with the ranking. “We have a lot of people that are moving here and we are being recognized all over the place. We’ve seen a lot of people talking about being the best place to retire and I think that contributes to the quality of life, no doubt. The natural resources, the beauty here of the lakes and the mountains, if you want to be in a major city you can be there in about two hours and really now Greenville is getting to be a major city too, so you can be in that setting if you want to but if you want a little slower pace you can be right here. We live in a great area and it is exciting being recognized.” Smartasset.com compared Seneca to all other major cities in the state. They used factors such as taxes, doctors’ offices per 1,000 people, percent of seniors in the area, and many others to get their results. Read the article on the city’s website at www.seneca.sc.us.
