The World’s 5 Best Places to Retire in 2026 (Ranked by Experts)

Every January, for 13 years now, we’ve been creating our Overseas Retirement Index, naming the world’s top retirement havens for the year.

For 2026, the Overseas Retirement Index features 12 incredible destinations.

But we don’t just announce them, we grade and rank them across 14 all-important categories that every retiree needs to consider before moving overseas.

These include:
💰 Cost of living
☀️ Climate
🏥 Health care
🗣️ English spoken
🛂 Residency options
📊 Taxes
🔒 Safety
And much more!

What makes the Overseas Retirement Index different is that it gives you specific destinations (cities, towns, and even neighborhoods), rather than a vague list of countries.

In this video, you’ll get a peek behind the scenes at how the Index is created, the criteria we use and why, and the top 5 countries that made it into the list.
