Shreveport in the Top Five places to retire

The Inquisitor and a couple of other news outlets are citing this report where Shreveport is listed #5 in the top five places to retire. 
When I saw the headline, I figured Jackson must be number 1 (its not). Tampa is no. 3.
I'm not a Shreveport basher, but it isn't a Top Five place to retire.

Cost of living has to be a huge factor here.

I don't know but Shreveport sure has been talked about alot lately.

It's not a very pretty place.

I understand retiring to Toledo bend or another lake, but why would anyone (who isnt from there) retire to a city like Shreveport?

Death seems like a better option than living in Shreveport once retired

just what Shreveport needs
more old people with old beliefs and set in their ways

The elderly sure do love them a good casino buffet

cost of living + old people love casinos. that is all I can think of

Why not just head a couple hours north to Hot Springs Village and retire there?

Shreveport is a good place to live for Military retirees. Barksdale Air Force Base is right there in Bossier.

I saw an article where it was rated a top place for millennials. That gave me a hearty laugh. It's almost like some rich donor is paying magazines to rank the city favorably in hopes of tricking people to move there.

Is this including Bossier or is it just Shreveport proper?

It's not cold and your dollar goes a long way.
But Mississippi doesn't tax retirement income.

Fairfield Grocery is already packed enough

Couldn't help thinking after reading the title about how old animals like to find a quiet spot to lay down and die

Probably because it's cheap, has good healthcare, it's warm, and it's nearby some lakes and other nature that make it a pleasant place to live for older folks. If I had to guess.
Plus casinos. Old people love casinos.
