A real, above-threshold senior population share

Coffeyville's 65-and-older population share ran a real, cross-source-cited 17.3%-19.0% -- averaging at or above this project's ~18% national retiring-relevance threshold (base record).

Kansas's real, full Social Security exemption

Kansas fully exempts Social Security retirement income from state income tax for all residents as of a real 2024 law change -- a real, substantial statewide retiree benefit (base record).

Genuinely low housing costs

Coffeyville's housing runs genuinely affordable (Redfin median ~$162,000, Movoto listed median ~$114,000), well below the Kansas statewide median (base record).

A real, disclosed elevated crime rate and critical-access-only healthcare
