Cost of Living & Taxes

Though the cost of living in Loudon is higher than the state index, the average is lower than the national cost of living index. Healthcare and transportation categories are below the state and national averages.

Tennessee is considered one of the most tax friendly states for retirees. The state does not have an income tax, so all forms of retirement income remain untaxed, including Social Security benefits, retirement savings accounts, and pensions. In addition to having some of the lowest property taxes in the country, certain residents who are 65+ may qualify for an income-based exemption to reduce that cost even further. Tennessee does, however, have a fairly high sales tax, with the combined rate in Loudon being 9.5 percent.

Health Care

Although there are no hospitals within Loudon, nearby Parkwest Medical Center is ranked No. 2 in the Knoxville area and No. 7 in Tennessee. The medical center is rated high performing in four procedures and conditions by U.S. News.

Other high performing hospitals in the area include, Roane Medical Center in Harriman, Methodist Medical Center in Oak Ridge, and Blount Memorial Hospital in Maryville.
