10,000 people turn 65 in the U.S. every single day. The average American retirement age is 63, and the life expectancy for retirees is about 85. That means Americans should plan to spend 22 years in retirement. The AARP suggests a retirement income nest egg of at least $1 million, but the Buying power of $1 million varies wildly depending on where you live. So if you’re asking “how long will my money last in retirement,” the answer depends on your state.

In order to determine how long $1 million will last the average retiree in each state, we found the average total expenditures for people 65 and older, which includes groceries, housing, utilities, transportation and healthcare. Then, we multiplied that by the cost of living index in each state to find the average expenditure cost for each state.

50. Hawaii

$1 million will last: 11 years, 11 months

If you retire with $1 million in Hawaii, you have just shy of a dozen years to ride out your savings. At $5,626 a year, the cost of groceries is by far the highest in the nation, and housing is no picnic, either. At $46,478 a year, housing costs in Hawaii blow away the next-most-expensive state by nearly $16,000 a year. In all, annual expenditures are nearly $23,000 more in Hawaii than the next-priciest state.

49. California

$1 million will last: 16 years, 5 months

Only one state other than Hawaii requires annual expenditures of more than $60,000 — and that state is California, where retirees spend $60,877 a year to get by. Hawaii is also the only state to trump California in the category of housing costs. Although it’s nearly $16,000 more forgiving than Hawaii, housing in California is a brutal $30,514 a year. It costs a lot to live and retire comfortably in the Golden State. Do I have enough to retire? If you have $1 million and you’re asking this question in California, the answer is no.

48. Alaska

$1 million will last: 17 years, 0 months

America’s other noncontiguous state joins Hawaii near the bottom of the retirement-dollar-stretching pack. It costs $58,733 to get through a year in Alaska, thanks in large part to a painfully high $4,651 annual grocery bill, which is second in the nation behind Hawaii. Housing is actually a relatively forgiving $21,585 a year, but even so, you can expect your luck — and your $1 million — to run out in exactly 17 years. That means the amount of money needed to retire in Alaska is more than $1 million.

47. New York

$1 million will last: 17 years, 1 month

How long will my money last? That’s the question every retiree wants to know. In New York, the answer is not long enough. $1 million will take you slightly further in the Empire State than in the frozen wilderness of Alaska — one month further, to be exact. Utilities are relatively benign, but both groceries and transportation claim the title of ninth-highest in the nation. The real trouble, however, is housing. At $29,055, housing in New York costs more than it does in all but just two other states.

46. Massachusetts

$1 million will last: 17 years, 4 months

The big financial killer in pricey Massachusetts is healthcare, which costs an individual $6,844 a year in the state. That’s more than all but two states in the entire country.

The annual cost is just $2,903, which is the second-lowest in the country. In the end, $1 million won’t cut it if you want to retire in Oregon.
