Everyone knows that when picking a place to live, location is one of the most important factors to consider.

The same goes for choosing a place to retire.

Retirement Living found the best 10 cities for retirement based on affordability, quality of life, and health care.

According to the list of retirement-friendly areas, one city in Kentucky made the list.

Louisville came in at number seven on the list.

The site states, "Louisville offers many miles of parklands, a moderate crime rate, and a low cost of living. The metropolitan area attracts seniors and has a very high percentage of residents over age 65. Louisville offers very defined seasons, but this means cold winters. Senior living options are affordable, and Kentucky offers some retirement tax relief and low property taxes."

It is no surprise that the top two spots on the list are locations in Florida that have a close proximity to a beach and never-ending warm weather.

According to Retirement Living, here are the best 10 cities for retirement:

  1. Miami, Florida
  2. Jacksonville, Florida
  3. El Paso, Texas
  4. Atlanta, Georgia
  5. Tulsa, Oklahoma
  6. Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
  7. Louisville, Kentucky
  8. New Orleans, Louisiana
  9. San Antonio, Texas
  10. Mesa, Arizona
